Gerrit Recently I was reminded of "Big City" again and had to see if it's on Bandcamp. I've known this track since I first came across it on mtv's 120 minutes in the 90s if I remember correctly. My appreciation for it has even grown over the years. It's a very special time capsule for a feeling I haven't felt since. Listening to it today is a bit like a lost loved one - sad because it's gone and never coming back, but also beautiful because it lives on in my memories. Favorite track: Big City (Everbody I Know Can Be Found Here).

By the time the album was recorded, relations between the band had soured to the extent that the record is essentially in two parts; the first five tracks on side ‘A’ written and performed by Sonic Boom a.ka. Peter Kember (Spectrum / E.A.R.), and the last five tracks on side ‘B’ written and performed by Jason Pierce (Spiritualized).

The lead track from the album “Big City" recently featured on the season 27 premiere of ‘The Simpsons’ being the sound track to Homer Simpson’s wild night out on the town, mixing alcohol with prescription drugs.

Due to continued demand, the fourth and final Spacemen 3 studio album "Recurring"; the much anticipated follow up to their seminal “Playing with Fire” album, is being repressed. This limited edition repress will be on heavyweight (180 gram) solid green vinyl with printed card inner sleeve.

By the time the album was recorded, relations between the band had soured to the extent that the record is essentially in two parts; the first five tracks on side ‘A’ written and performed by Pete Kember a.k.a Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R., and the last five tracks on side ‘B’ written and performed by Jason Pierce (Spiritualized).

The lead track “Big City" recently featured on HBO’s hugely successful show “Succession”, as well as being used on an episode of ‘The Simpsons’. The track “I Love You” has also enjoyed success on the screen having been used in a recent episode of “Reservation Dogs”, a successful US TV drama.

The artwork looks as good now as it did over 30 years ago, the green vinyl only complimenting the overall design.

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. https://tortue.substack.com/i/140348114/slowdive-everything-is-alive-dead-oceans Daniel Welsch
