Life Model #2 - Come Round

Facebook

Glasgow's Life Model return after last springs debut EP with "Come Round", a heavenly track which immediately highlights a progression in the quintet's ambient, dream-pop soundscapes and one which is undoubtedly their finest yet.

Clocking in at almost six minutes in length, a sign in itself that "Come Round" is never in any rush to hurry you along (and it's all the better for that), it slowly drifts around a languid, weightless melody of gauzy guitar shimmers and pared-down beats in which Sophie Evans' beautiful, ethereal vocals glide effortlessly towards a space-out finale of grungy guitar noise. The result takes you straight back to the sweeter side of 1990's shoegaze and is utterly delicious.

The single is released on limited cassette / digital download on January 20th via Viscerality Records and is available to pre-order now.

Life Model - New Music "Introducing"

Facebook

Life Model are a new five Piece shoegaze/noisepop band from Glasgow, Scotland who have been amassing quite some praise in early 2013 with a trio of tracks that bring 90's era dream pop instantly to mind with spaced-out guitar and drifting ethereal vocals taking the listener on a gorgeous, gauzy journey of sparse ambient bliss.

Those early recordings are now being bundled together via a limited self-titled cassette release due on April 1st via Viscerality Records with a fourth, as yet unreleased track "Persistent" to follow...

Opener "Glazed" sums up Life Model's intent within its title, hypnotizing soundscapes and a prominent bass-line amongst perfectly swirling psychedelia. "Sit Still" is a sugar-coated beauty with gorgeous day-dreaming vocals gliding weightlessly on a bed of soft guitar textures while "Take it Slowly" combines the same hazy atmospherics, floating in and out of conciousness with languid beats and noisy guitar riffs.

These tracks are utterly delicious and I can't wait to see where these guys go next.
