These kites
They're flying so high
These clouds
They're running so fast
Those are your dreams
Forgotten in life difficulties
That you've created by yourself
These kites are so high
These kites are so high
These kites are so high
These kites are so high
So high
I know that you can
Get rid of your fears
And start it all over again
Dry all of your tears
It's harder than you thought
But you can do it
Remember what is right
What is right for you
I know you will find
You'll find your true calling
And life will be better
It will be so much better
Now you should throw your doubts away
Don't trust your life only to the fate
And to others
This is your life
Only your life
And you decide
I know that you have
Something deep inside
That always helps you
To do everything right
And there is so much you can do
And there is so much you can get
You just don't know it yet
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
