about
- THE VANISHING SHADOW -
When lifeforms fall out of reach from one another, into an endless pit of fear, the emptiness in space appears... and they question if they are really... gone.
"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
The hardest thing to do
Is to prove you exist
With every single coat that you paint erased
And I'm gone
(Nobody sees me)
And I'm gone
(Nobody sees me)
We've failed to reverse light
Refracting in this life
The oceans are empty
The deepest shades of blue remain
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
(Nobody sees me)
We're falling out of reach
Endless in this fear
The skies shift in their hues
The emptiness in space appears
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
And I'm gone
Is to prove you exist
With every single coat that you paint erased
And I'm gone
(Nobody sees me)
And I'm gone
(Nobody sees me)
We've failed to reverse light
Refracting in this life
The oceans are empty
The deepest shades of blue remain
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
(Nobody sees me)
We're falling out of reach
Endless in this fear
The skies shift in their hues
The emptiness in space appears
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
And we're gone
(Nobody sees me)
And I'm gone

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.
