Was Once
Ahead or behind
The deafening silence
Until you hear that voice
There’s comfort in being alone
The first or the last
Every possible future
You can never tell
When it’s gone or yet to arrive
We may never see a sign
Primitive sounds will disappear into the ether
Across all space and time
Someone has to be the first through the filter
Defeating ourselves
Keeping our feet anchored
Burning every chance
Before we get off the floor

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

The members of Big Slice rubbed shoulders with Britpop legends like Suede & Echobelly—no surprise when you hear their radiant, hooky songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 17, 2022
This Toronto group's sound unabashedly hearkens back to the bouncy indiepop of the Darling Buds and the Primitives. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2019
