The Sorry Shop - Softspoken (2017) EN


The Sorry Shop: among the inspirations of the Brazilians are My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Cocteau Twins so you can bet that their music sounds like dreaming times haze, put together and transformed into notes.

And those notes fuel mostly distorted guitars that are able to be more delicate in some parts while in another ones they drill into your skull ("Pearls") and never hurrying drums. Also the vocals are almost copied and pasted from original shoegaze bands. Slightly lower quality of recordings not only doesn't bother but also glues the Sorry Shop's music into one, dense music smear.

Not only the band's music is dreamy, also the lyrics seem to be written in the REM sleep, as in "Daydream Dancing" ("Daydream dancing, dreamy sunsmile"), "Lost In Between" ("Sunny days, it seems to disappear, sounds like no one hears me") or in "Queen of the North" ("Faded by the blurry morning, touched by the sun, golden shades of pale voided skin"). And yes, just as one could guess judging by the country of origin, they write a lot about the Sun. That, apparently, does not prevent from dreaming.

"Softspoken" is available for whatever you want to pay.
