4.07am
Engine running
Parked in the snow
Three quarters of a tank
Let's see how far we'll go
Cold concrete and frozen glass
Red lights fade into the past
You sleep, I'll drive
I'll keep us both alive
And free
From the city to the sea
Be ready at 4 to come with me
It's just like i thought it would be
Until this whole place sleeps again
At 4.07am
This album makes you feel like you're inside an old computer that is on it's last legs. Everything is glitchy, aggressive, and decaying around you. There are only a few moments where it feels something is still functioning and intact, only to be followed by more sounds of disrepair. Truly a special experience. icu8some2
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
