Dale Lloyd The euphoria is real! Definitely one of my few favorite new albums of 2024, plus (in addition to their addictive "Everytime" EP) an album and band I personally consider to be among the most notable in pop / rock history due to the gifted uplifting exhilaration their music fills the listener. Congratulations to these guys for their accomplishments! ❤️ Favorite track: Diamonds In Your Lies.

your light locked into mine as we fade out of time no wonder you have made it up in your head no wonder remains, except in your dreams what might have been my hand locked into yours as we still spin around no wonder you have made it up in your head no wonder remains, except in your dreams what might have been

Disarray 03:26
sink in the sea of your mind I am sleepy now all the time sink in the sea from before do you love me now? do you know who I am? I want you now I want you now I want you now sleep in your dreams all the time are you here with me? are you here to see the stars? sing in my dreams from you heart you are haunting me when you sink in with me I want you now I want you now I want you now I want you now I want you now I want you now

Melting 03:57
falling jointly when do I land without you glass emotions torn to pieces motionless bedtime stories when do I wake without you someone else weighs me down in your sleep uh uh uh uh uh uh (disappear, lose yourself) you complete me how can I live without you don’t you feel like we’re meant to be forever uh uh uh uh uh uh (disappear, lose yourself)

Stargazer 04:38
what if all this dreaming would scatter what you believe you are a mere perceiver embracing everything what you are what if ruminating would be just what it is you are a mere perceiver embracing everything that you are there is something else beyond your mind there is something else beyond your mind believe you will find me leaving everything to be in the formlessness you are a mere perceiver embracing effortlessly what you are there is something else beyond your mind there is something else beyond your mind believe you will find me you will find me you will find me you will find me

No Tomorrow 05:15

Dream Punk 04:41

7.
Unrestrained 03:05
no more shore searching forevermore no choice but to soar cast out of a dream to be free bittersweet I am cast away unrestrained this hurt will be but a story someday want to be free (want to be free) to be free bittersweet I am cast away unrestrained
8.
hiding something unknown inside nervous they may reveal what it is smiling even when I am hurt I don't know what is real anymore leave me you should leave me why do you follow me away? when I look into your eyes, I’m not enough spacing out every time you go through me leave me you should leave me why do you follow me away?
9.
losing me inside of a dream I can’t tell you if I am the dreamer drowning feelings you carried away you can’t tell me if you are the dreamer nothing is real nothing is real nothing is real nothing is real let me feel it too sensations belong I can’t tell you if you are the dreamer nothing is real nothing is real
10.
Erase It 02:38
glowing from her being it burns in my body but I really don’t allow it passing in the night she’s better off without me I am better off on my own erase it all of it she can’t see me ghostly heartache feelings she breaks all my borders I don’t want to fall in love erase it all of it she can’t see me now

about

The full-length debut from Danish/Norwegian shoegaze outfit Meltway is an infectious collection of explosively driven songs about letting go of the mind, the self, and our place in the universe.

“Nothing Is Real” is just as nihilistic as it is liberating - calling for an ambiguous listening experience that is open to interpretation. This idea is illustrated in the synergy between the instrumental euphoria and the introspective lyrics that ignite a glowing fire deep inside the listener's eardrums.

The noteworthy lineup of three guitars, where each guitar plays a small part in a vast sonic space, makes “Nothing Is Real” ethereal, playful, and radiating ecstatic energy from beginning to end. It’s the sound of a curious band transcending the boundaries of conventional rock genres, fusing shoegaze, noise rock, dream pop, and grunge to craft an intoxicating atmosphere that has its roots in the ’90s, but simultaneously pushes into new exciting territory.
