Two years on from their highly praised work The Vampires Meet Lionel Loueke, ­The Vampires return with a new offering: Pacifica. Whilst Pacifica sees the Vampires return to the classic chord-less quartet format, the new album is an evolution of the band's sound, leaning further into recording production.
