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.

I have loved this band since my older brother discovered them when he lived in BA, OK in 2000. I think I've bought this particular album several times over now in different formats. I have a scrap of a festival flyer where the band signed and wish me a happy birthday - it's framed and on my wall :)
It's nigh impossible for me to choose a single song; the whole album works together so well, I pretty much always listen to it all the way through every time. jamieoh
This Tulsa group's shimmering, classic dream pop has the sound of iconic touchstones like the Pale Saints and New Order. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2024

Just awesome. Thanks for the Sharrock cover. One of my favorite songs on one of my favorite albums. Really looking forward to Big Ears this year! casarojo
