EDITORIAL REVIEWS


LISTED ON POST-PUNK.COM'S 100 MOST ESSENTIAL DREAM POP RELEASES EVER, CLOSEDOWN STAND OUT AS ONE OF THE MOST CURIOUSLY OVERLOOKED.
Los Angeles dream merchants return with a re-release of classic tracks initially from the 1994 debut "Nearfield". This new interpretation entitled "Dissolve" includes different mixes and a never-before-heard track, "Skywards". Listed on Post-Punk.com's 100 most essential dream pop releases ever, Closedown stand out as one of the most curiously overlooked. This four-piece from Los Angeles was one of America's earliest shoegaze bands; some even say they were the first. Emerging from currents of drenching spectral etherealism, Closedown pin you down permanently with swelling whirlpools of brilliant sounds. The comparison to other bliss-rock bands is inevitable, yet such analogies overlook the uniqueness of Closedown's musical conception.

Scott McDonald - Guitars

Recorded/Written: 1992-1993
