SIAN ALICE GROUP This is the second release in The Social Registry’s 7-inch series, titled The Social Club, which ran from 2007-08. Dispatched monthly via letter-pressed/limited edition 7-inch vinyl and digital distribution, this series presented a full musical array: the established and the obscured, the noisy and the delicate, the tempered and the experimental. "Seven minutes of hypnotic vibe." - Mojo "A beautiful, beautiful two part 'piece' of atmospheric wonder." - Time Out London "I'm all about part two, in which the group hammers away at one chord in the same style, unearthing howling strings and a flooded, mesmerizing vibe that few bands in their shoes elect to take." - Dusted Rather than provide us with the requested two tracks for this, their debut release, Sian Alice Group instead opted to split Nightsong over two sides. Side A features the vocal section of the track, while side B is instrumental and was made from improvised and layered first takes. Both sides together provide a sweeping track that moves from pop melodies to improvised noise, perfectly encompasing the variety of musical styles the band embodies. As is the case with all their recordings, Nightsong was produced and engineered by band-member Rupert Clervaux at the band’s central London studio. |
