Cranes - Particles & Waves - VINYL LP

Limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on translucent silver coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Cranes is a dream pop/shoegaze band formed by siblings Alison and Jim Shaw who rose to stardom following a world tour with the Cure in 1992. After the influential Dedicated tag folded in 1998 they went on a two-year hiatus after which they set up their own tag Dadaphonic. Here, they released three studio albums between 2001 and 2008, of which this self-titled record is their last. Like their other Dadaphonic records, Cranes is a continuation of the band's subtler side powered by their penchant for electronic music. Shimmery synth arps and ambient strings are interspersed with the trusted drum kit and guitars, while keeping Alison Shaw's child-like vocals so integral to the band's overall sound intact. The result is a vintage Cranes album that has the ability to both soothe long-time fans as well as reel in new ones. Album Tracks 1. Diorama 2. Worlds 3. Feathers 4. Wires 5. Panorama 6. Wonderful Things 7. Collecting Stones 8. Invisible 9. Move Along 10. Sleepwalking 11. High and Low

Album Tracks 1. Pillow Panther 2. Fuse [Original Version] 3. Valentine 4. Gas-Ring 5. Things That I Like 6. Wrench 7. Fracture 8. New Liberty

British Sky Empire is back with their second album InchThe Shifting Tectonic Plates of Power - Part OneInch. This time has Jeff Scott Soto (Yngwie J. Malmsteen, Talisman, Journey) taken over the position as vocalist, and he is doing a fantastic job. The album will surely appeal to fans of both 70´s, 80´s and 90´s eras of progressive heavy rock/metal, but also to the fans of the new age spotless equilibrism of prog-artists, like Tesseract, Haken or Vola. Album Tracks 1. Prolegomenon the Encomium of Creati 2. On the Shores of Hallowed Haven 3. The Emissary 4. Into My Fathers Eyes 5. Wayfarer 6. The Last Days of Planet Fantasy 7. House of Cards
