我夢見長頸鹿對我說 [The Giraffe Told Me In My Dream] - Slowfall (2019) EN


Another shoegaze EP from the Orient this week. This time it's provided by the Taiwanese band with such a charming name: The Giraffe Told Me In My Dream. How would I overlook it? Especially that Snowfall is interesting also due to its content.

While Collapse showed certainly the heavier side of shoegaze, Giraffes present the airy-sweet one. They describe their music as "overly noisy, overly sweet, doing whatever we could do to tell you a love story", and it's a perfect description. Yes, it is loud but the wall of guitar sounds is here a homogeneous, though sometimes very raw (as in Where We Are Going) background on which the main role is reserved for the vocal - cute, sad and mesmerizing. But it's not everything, also the vocalless parts are worth mentioning as they are ruled by original but also very shoegaze-like at the same time melodies, not to mention the exceptionally impressive finish in Slow.

Slowfall  costs 3 USD.
