You Won’t Want to Miss out on Pale Seas’ Places to Haunt [stream]

Pale Seas – Evil is Always One Step Behind SoundCloud

Pales Seas’ new Places to Haunt EP is a melancholy dream that will transport you metaphorically to the seaside village of England that bore its contents. You can hear their carefully articulated precision amongst a flood of reverb in each unique song. The soft layers of “Difference for Once” seem to melt into a mesmerizing haze that echoes into the vacuum of existence. Bursting forth with a strong melody and pronounced vocals, “Wicked Dreams” is an anthemic and jangly examination of the lonely part of love. The folkiest of the bunch, “Sleeping”, sees the British and nostalgic influences come to the forefront of a plodding bassline and psychedelic vocals and guitar. Capping this phantasmic collection of pop is a seven minute idling journey on guitar with “Evil is Always One Step Behind”. It takes the familiar aspects of the songs and expands them creatively to form the most artful track of the group. Places to Haunt is a fine-tuned reverie you’ll not want to miss out on, so have a listen and float away.
