This one is for sure the best Shoegaze/Dreampop I have ever heard! Love the melodies, rhythms, bass lines and for sure the enchanting and overwhelming and melancholic voice of the singer. This one reminds me of Erato in 1996 (seems like forever a demo band, for sure after the singer left the band) versus Anathema. The retro sound is top quality & great studio work, nothing to add. It's simply a must have for 80's fans & more! Shoegaze lovers can buy it without listening to it first. It sounds as if it was made in the 80's and it sounds so fresh and yet so retro!
Been listening for hours, I must say it was hard leaving my sofa and start working on a review. There are 8 songs on this one and all are pearls and diamonds. I could be silly and drop all the titles of the songs and name them all as my favourite one, but I'm not going to do that. Give it a shot and let me know!
I have seen there is a Facebook page and I just don't get it: they only have like 350 likes at this point. Why don't they get like 10k more, because that is what they deserve (at least). People need to start listening to it, spread the good word and book them as fast as possible!
Looooved it!
