LIMINAL

Initiated by Jack Bolingbroke (vocals, guitars, synths) THE SLOW Light is a band from Adelaide, Australia, that evolved from a solo project to a true collective. Also comprised of drummer Rory Amoy and Morris Ewings (bass) they could release their current studio album 'Liminal' in 2022. And that's really differing, as it is the first one to include vocals. Currently they are even enhanced to a five-piece, due to second guitarist Tom Pearce and keyboarder Nathan Churches being involved. That offers the ability to implement their sound on a stage too in full blow. The formation process, and the result as such, is realisizing a way to express emotions. It's a concept album that reflects on a timeline of events and experiences.

Like many other music creators Bolingbroke has composed a very personal record, trying to send a sonic rollercoaster on the journey. 'That look you had in your eyes ...', exemplarily to note the heartfelt soft ballad Three Years Later. Wonderful acoustic guitars are available during the course of Denouement. This song definitely needed multiple attempts to reach for its finesse. Other outstanding tracks are The Hourglass and the following title track, both with proper jamming potential. In sum, the band is offering six entertaining songs here, a cleverly engineered blend of art rock and psych/space featuring prospering guitar work and massive spheric synths.
