same ni oikakerare
nando mo furikaete
nigete mo owareru
itsuka wa oboreru daro
*translation*
Being chased by sharks, I keep looking over my shoulder
Try to escape, but they keep coming
Someday I’ll just drown
amari ni mo baka baka shiku
hanashite tsukareru
taiyo wa mabushisugiru
atama ga karuku naru
mune ni wa hibi ga dekiru
mo iki wa dekinaku naru
*translation*
The endless stupid babbling
Just makes me tired
The sun is harsh and blinding
My head spins, feels weak
My chest starts to crack
I stop breathing
This view just might carry on for days
and leave me turning in the waves
maigo no nakushi mono
sagase nai tame
nigete mo owarete
*translation*
Wayward things i lose
I still can’t find
So i’ll escape just to be chased
This view just might carry on for days
and leave me turning in the waves

This is potentially the greatest dreampop record of the 2010s. Combining bold, memorable melodies, varied and textured music, and emotionally breathtaking lyrics, Psychopomp will be remembered for many decades to come and has an unforgettable place in the heart of anybody who knows it. Devin Passage
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.

Hopscotching from jangle pop and post-hardcore to math rock and shoegaze, these Minnesota rockers have a gift for musical multitasking. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 29, 2024
Fans of Galaxie 500 and Lush are invited to sink into this lovely record of shimmery dream pop from Toronto group Tallies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 23, 2022
Samira Winter’s music feels like a mirage unfolding in the distance: wavy synths, drifting vocals, and treasures galore. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 23, 2020
Wish I was aware of the genius of both bands back when this was released in 2012. Asobi Seksu had the great album Citrus, and Boris is typically amazing. Great example of how you can retain the essence of another's work while applying your bands' unique perspective and additions. Great music that will put you in a dreamy state. awholegate
