Another night
You pick me up
One second in
Already stuck
A cutting touch, oh no
Can't play my role
And I pretend not to know
You ask me, "What's the matter?"
Oh please, don't even bother
It's hard to hold that you don't know
The lines draw when I pull away
And use that guilt to make me stay
Screaming, "I want this too!"
Oh why, desperate lie
The lights pass by into the nothing night
You keep on baiting me but I won't bite
You like this fight
Because when it's silent the truth becomes deafening
You ask me, "What's the matter?"
Oh please, don't even bother
It's hard to hold that you don't know
The lines draw when I pull away
And use that guilt to make me stay
Screaming, "I want this too!"
Oh why, desperate lie

The title track pulled me into Slow Crush's orbit, but Tremble held me there - alongside Lull from the Hush LP and the whole of Seasurfer's Dive In, it can send me into an altered state of consciousness. The album vibrates with hints and nudges, from Slowdive twangs to a Corgan-esque chord shift, but Slow Crush are their own sound - thick, dark melodic, etherealistic soundscapes with Isa Holliday's vocals both binding the music and rising above it. One of the best bands in years. sentientpoet
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
