about
- SHADOWS ON THE SUN -
How long can a surface hold its form before cracking?
In a world where darkness rises and lights dim, one earthly, broken figure can no longer take it anymore..
"There is something quite beautiful about their songs, each one is a little masterpiece with a sincerity and a heartfelt message " - Welsh Connections, Wales, UK — Michael Kennedy
"With a style constantly shifting, moving between influences like another songwriter might move between chords. The songs are transcendental, ephemeral, electronic numbers reminiscent of a mash-up of Radiohead and Neil Young; personal, full of heartfelt angst whilst being beautifully, tenderly, performed" - The Swansea Fringe Festival, Wales, UK — Joe Bayliss
"A complex and textured journey that delves deep into the human condition, bringing to light heartfelt musings" - Broken 8 Records, Sydney, Australia — Tom Bedward

lyrics
Like shadows on the sun
That scars on the soul
I can't take it, I can't take it
What's going on?
And as the darkness is rising
My light is getting dim
I can't shake it, I can't shake it
What's going on?
Do you see anything?
Do you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Like cracks in earth
That flower through this birth
I mistake it, I mistake it for what's going on
And as the sand slides away
Imprisoned in this constant state
I can't take it, I won't take it
But it's going on
Do you see anything?
Do you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Do you feel anything?
Will you see anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Treading blind
That scars on the soul
I can't take it, I can't take it
What's going on?
And as the darkness is rising
My light is getting dim
I can't shake it, I can't shake it
What's going on?
Do you see anything?
Do you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Like cracks in earth
That flower through this birth
I mistake it, I mistake it for what's going on
And as the sand slides away
Imprisoned in this constant state
I can't take it, I won't take it
But it's going on
Do you see anything?
Do you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Will you see anything?
Will you feel anything?
Walking 'round in circles all the time
Do you feel anything?
Will you see anything?
Drowning in the moment treading blind
Treading blind

Sky Diving Penguins
by Sky Diving PenguinsThe 4th consecutive listen, on first release, made me equal part happy/sad... it's a stunning LP, especially "Trippin #9"; this is what Lennon may have been doing if he were alive today. I'm in love.

The Great Swells That Carry Us Will Pull Us Under
by AARONSONIt swims, and swirls. Like a lovely combination of Sigur Ros and Mogwai. Hugely cinematic and atmospheric, it's just a dream to hear., and see now that it's on luscious ocean blue vinyl!

Giddy and rambunctious, these three songs sound like the soundtrack to the world’s most hyperactive 8-bit game.
