 Slowshine: have just released a brand new video for the song ''Heights''

 

Berlin-based heavy psych rockers Slowshine have just released a brand new video for the song „Heights“, taken from their new album "Living Light“. Edited & produced by Sebastian Fischbeck New album LIVING LIGHT, out now via The Lasting Dose Records https://thelastingdoserecords.bandcamp.com "One of 2021’s most encouraging debut albums." - The Obelisk "Living Light was an unexpected surprise for myself as I fell in love with this album quite quickly and one that has definitely earned a place on my list of Best Albums of 2021." - Outlaws Of The Sun "Slowshine can be listened to in its entirety without the slightest distraction that would disrupt this sacred moment." - l'Oreille à l'envers 'LIVING LIGHT' manages to immerse the listener in a magnetic field in which psychedelia manages to expand the mind of the listener, caressing, seducing and drugging him. A cell from which any psychedelic lover will never want to escape. - DenpaFuzz "Living Light" is a debut album that deserves to be among the most prestigious of the year. – La Habitación 235 A sonic journey through clouds of thunder, SLOWSHINE combines the wall-of-sound dynamics of Torche with the vintage swagger of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. With the warmth of 70s UK psychedelia and the driving riffs of stoner rock, "Living Light" is an exploration of storytelling through rhythm and texture. FFO: Torche, Crippled Black Phoenix, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard Psych doom power couple Jan and Sabine Oberg (Earth Ship, Grin) have teamed up with drummer André Klein (Earth Ship, The Smokin’ 44s) to form a new heavy noise rock project called SLOWSHINE. Living Light is the band’s first musical outing, consisting of eight sweeping tracks that take cues from post-punk, stoner rock, sludge, and shoegaze. As Jan Oberg (guitars & vocals) explains, “'Living Light' is about wandering around as the last person or soul on a destroyed planet where nature has finally taken everything back.” The singing, buried under vast layers of distortion and reverb, conveys stories from a post-apocalyptic world that slowly engrave themselves into the listener’s brain. However, "Living Light" shouldn’t be considered as a warning about impending doom, but rather as an exploration of storytelling through rhythm and texture. Drenched in filters and fuzz, "Living Light" combines the warmth and haze of seventies UK psychedelia with the expansive driving riffs of stoner rock. Songs like “Trails” or “Heights” with their swaggering rhythms really let the brain take the backseat in favor of a more intuitive listening experience. However, before unfastening the top two buttons of their shirt, one should know that SLOWSHINE references the melodic wall-of-sound dynamics of Torche as much as the vintage big ball swagger of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. On their debut, SLOWSHINE excel through a wide range of dynamics, from the contemplative “A Quiet Place” to the explosive “Mother Moon”. Being a product of pandemic times, the "Living Light" was recorded in four live sessions at Jan Oberg’s own Hidden Planet Studio; a tactic that enhances the album’s no-nonsense attitude and sincerity. Nevertheless, the tracks on "Living Light" contain a sonic depth that would suggest a more tedious recording process. From the low rumbling bass of Sabine Oberg to the shimmering 12-string guitars played by Jan Korbach (neànder, Casper) on “Trails”, SLOWSHINE presents a sonic depth befitting of the album’s epic narrative. In combination with a stunning album cover by Benedikt Demmer (Druckwelle), "Living Light" provides the whole package – a sonic journey through clouds of thunder and vast open spaces. Line-up: Sabine Oberg – Bass Jan Oberg – Guitars, Vocals André Klein – Drums Release Date: October 8th 2021 (Digital/Tape) | November/December 2021 (Vinyl) The Lasting Dose Records - https://thelastingdoserecords.bandcamp.com/
