The Tidal Sleep - Failures/Off by this charming man records published on 2012-08-28T13:06:22Z This one song of Tidal Sleep's upcoming four song 12" on This Charming Man. What a summer for this four piece outfit from the south of germany. the first lp has sold almost 1000 copies and they guys played literaly every pommesbude in germany - leaving behind a lot people speachless. This "untitled" Ep features four brand new songs which are more catchy and indie-like in its songwriting as the last record. the new songs bring the typical TTS shoegaze-ish guitarlayers over dreamy delay-scapes, beautiful melodies, a massive sounding driving bass, Nic`s metaphoric lyrics filling his screamed/spoken anger and despair. this record takes a big step forward, a further step away from the classical modern hardcore stuff towards an almost "pop"-sounding postrock stuff. the songwriting reminds me sometimes at the mighty Mogwai or Envy, as powerful and as beautiful passionate music can be. Recorded with Lewis John in Cologne at Gottesweg Studos and Tiger Kadaver & mastered by Dan Coutant Genre Post-hardcore
