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.

Incredible record, right up there with their best. I thought Weather Diaries was brilliant but this one might be even better! Stand-outs are Repetition, Fifteen Minutes, Jump Jet and the astonishing closer In This Room but the whole record is top drawer from a band who seem unable of ever putting a foot wrong creatively! 💚 bravewarrior
This late ’90s shoegaze record gets a full remaster on the advent of its 25th anniversary, its woozy melodies brighter than ever. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 26, 2021
