Humdrum - Every Heaven - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

When the world - and his previous band Star Tropics - crumbled in the early days of the pandemic, Chicago's Loren Vanderbilt began rebuilding himself through song. Daydreaming to the chime of IRS-era R.E.M., Felt, The Railway Children, New Order, and 90's staples like Ride, Pale Saints and Slowdive, he fell backwards in time through records as a means of escape. To break away from the present and embrace the nostalgia of musical eras gone by, Loren formed Humdrum - a band built around his favorite elements of dream-pop, indiepop, shoegaze, and new wave.On his debut album, InchEvery Heaven,Inch Loren establishes himself as a talented songwriter and master of melody across 10 tracks brimming with jangly guitars and lovelorn vocals-all punctuated by the pulse of a driving beat. A deeper listen reveals a juxtaposition between the album's carefree melodies, and it's sobering truths about the life, loss, and the questions of being a queer 30-something artist. With InchEvery HeavenInch Humdrum has presented 10 songs that speak to life's dynamic moments. And they can't wait for you to hear them. Album Tracks 1. Every Heaven 2. There and Back Again 3.
