Iconic Colorado (USA) based shoegaze/post-punk outfit A Shoreline Dream has released their Loveblind album via Latenight Weeknight Records. On their sixth full-length record, they dive into recollections and past desires while looking forward in a wash of soundwaves pointing towards a blinding future.
Their first release since the Covid pandemic began, offering 40 minutes of goth-laced progressive soundscapes. Two solid tasters previewed the new collection - lead track "Alarms Stop Ringing" and the title track "Loveblind". Produced by Ryan Policky and recorded over ten months in the Barnum suburb of Denver, Colorado, this album features immense synth layers, the band's signature guitar and symphonic vocals.
"This Loveblind album is an introspective view of things building all the way up, then crashing back down - like relationships that try to rekindle, only to find that the original reason for the failure has grown even stronger. The songs and driving energy behind each represents rare moments of true passion and also those of complete devastation. Even in perceived time of feeling, things couldn’t get any better, a finality lies waiting behind the next corner", says Ryan Policky.
The pandemic has taken its toll on our mental well-being and the perception of money and power has blown previous years away. Dying to get back to the good times and moments of pure, unscathed lust, we long for new experiences to sweep us off our feet. Loveblind reaches for that same energy, taking cues from previous A Shoreline Dream works, drawing from their progressive goth roots. Layers of moodiness, blissful explosions of rock and chugging tempo mix with the pain, love, hope and moments of near death experienced while creating the album itself. The entire album is available for streaming and you can give it a listen below. Link
