Slowdive- everything is aliveLabel: Dead Oceans Released 9 1 2023 everything is alive, Slowdives 5th record, is exactly what the title suggests: an exploration into the shimmering nature of life and the universal touch points within it. While there are parts of this record that could sit neatly next to the atmospheric quality of 1995s Pygmalion; everything is alive also manages to break down the boundaries of whats come before it. Spanning psychedelic soundscapes, pulsating 80s

The Big Express was virtually ignored on release

and genuine psychedelic exploration to fashion something altogether original and all his own

It reeled in rave reviews

and was an instant smash

Desecrate Through Reverence

This is the case with "Never As Tired As When I'm Waking Up" - drowsy/dazed John Lennon vibes through and through - as well as the drifting/uplifting "The Great Release" - an alternate closer to either of BRIAN ENO's first two solo records
