Startographers / Nim Split 7 Inch
Austin, Texas Alt Rock / Shoegaze band Startographers & Kyoto, Japan Emo Rock / Dream Pop band nim join forces with brand new singles on this Split 7" Vinyl record to be released Oct 8th by Shifting Sounds in N America, UK, Europe & by stiff slack / JETSET records in Japan. The Startographers contribute "Ante Meridiem", a melodic slice of well crafted dream-gaze with shimmering guitars, breezy vocals and brit pop hooks with swagger, as if Oasis, Ride, and Swervedriver collided. And just when you think the song is over, it kicks back in to the final refrain with the lyrics "Sleep with the light on. Sleep with the light on. The darkest mind; pretend you're fine tomorrow. The fragments are connecting in the sun." A personal and powerful ending with lush harmonies, and a massive melodic hook that you'll be singing along to in no time. nim on the other offer another dose of 90s inspired emo over twinkling guitars and a dynamic rhythm section, with its dual male/female clean vocal harmonies, layered guitars, and sonic landscape ranging from quiet to climatic explosions, creating an emotionally intense yet soothing listening experience. You can stream both singles below and all all digital streaming platforms now.
