Gregor Samsa - 55:12 - Own Records

They finally arrived with their long reported album after a hiatus where everything was unsure.

What is promised is due and 55:12 is exactly the album we expected like a perfect translation of the atmosphere of their last tour in Europe. As good as we wanted it too be, no big surprise then but an important step, something stable and solid where celestial slowcore meets ethereal and melancholic dreampop. Like early Low, Labradford, Cocteau Twins, Slowdive or Spokane, but one generation later with a deep and memorable point of view.

I loved the album but not as much as I loved their 2 eps. I don't really want to admit it but I think they lost their spirit.
There is the same will but not the same intensity.
