专辑简介
LIMITED to 250 copies on blue vinyl. Gorgeous post-rock/shoegaze soundscapes that grow and grow, song upon song, until about 3/4 of the way into this release, when you realize that your mind is truly and completely blown. "The Fields Are Cold" is one of the years top 'gaze anthems, IMO. A stunner! "Taking their cues largely from late-'80s and early-'90s shoegazers, Hollow Ox focus less on the wall of sound favored by My Bloody Valentine and more on the shimmering, arpeggiated guitars and washes of hushed vocals exhibited by the likes of Slowdive or Pale Saints. The resulting gorgeous soundscapes play to post-rock's strengths while sidestepping its overindulgences." - Nashville Scene "...like a psychedelic hovercraft by waves of cresting guitars, with vocals which attain an almost Hawkwind like droning intensity in places. 'Face the Stone' and 'Know It' both feature a mesmerising electric guitar strum set against hushed percussion – if you dig Windy and Carl you'll certainly enjoy these. 'The Fields are Cold', arguably my favourite on here, has that classic post-rock darkness then shade effect nailed down perfectly, with the vocals this time echoing the Bunnymen and the guitars building to a crescendo which I can imagine being truly awe-inspiring in the live environment, when the band have a chance to really stretch out." - Ptolemaic Terrascope
