Everything we had to change
At least we thought we had to
Life sometimes is like a stage
Where we are acting like fools
What are the right words to describe
How it feels
When we are ignored
And it seems like no one cares
I don't know what to say and to whom
To make myself feel a little bit better
And forget about it
I can not do anything
And even if I could
I have not enough energy
To make myself be understood
To find somebody else who
Who would be on the same side
So if they ruin everything
I'd better keep my hands clean
What are the right words to describe
How it feels
When we are ignored
And it seems like no one cares
I don't know what to say and to whom
To make myself feel a little bit better
And forget about it
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.

The title track pulled me into Slow Crush's orbit, but Tremble held me there - alongside Lull from the Hush LP and the whole of Seasurfer's Dive In, it can send me into an altered state of consciousness. The album vibrates with hints and nudges, from Slowdive twangs to a Corgan-esque chord shift, but Slow Crush are their own sound - thick, dark melodic, etherealistic soundscapes with Isa Holliday's vocals both binding the music and rising above it. One of the best bands in years. sentientpoet
