The Slow Readers Club - The Joy Of The Return (2020) [CD Rip]

Opening to an energetic blend of driving drums and infectious guitar lines, the track builds through evocative verses and anthemic choruses, imbued with their idiosyncratic brand of insightful and confronting lyricism and set against relentlessly danceable and energy-provoking instrumentation. ''All I Hear' is about a lack of agency and an inability to affect change. That there's something happening, and you have no choice but to go along with it,' explains singer Aaron Starkie. Throughout the album, the band explore a vast swathe of sonic territory, from the passionately delivered 'All the Idols', to the poppier tones of 'Jericho' that power through with bright indie guitar lines and ethereally melodic choruses.
