The Slow Summits ~ "Yore Songs", by Subjangle 10 track album

It's @theslowsummits.bsky.social with 'Spirit Of The Lyrics' on #freshingredients! They also inspired the Robert Forster track. Great lyrics here: "So to be heard / You sang the lyrics someone lent / Stuffed with all these pretty words / But you had no idea what they meant". What an ending too!!! 💚

This has been much delayed but I’m expecting copies from the printer this Wednesday and it’ll be on sale next Friday morning! Thanks for your patience, pals. And your encouragement!

Album Review: The Slow Summits have ‘Every Intention’ to blast a ray of luminescent pop sunshine into your ears all the way from Sweden. Anyone else remember the children's Swedish detective series Agaton Sax by Swedish author Nils-Olof Franzén and illustrated by Åke Lewerth, with Quentin Blake illustrating the English editions? Agaton Sax also ran the local newspaper, the Byoping Post. I loved this series for its quirky sense of humour and cheeky delivery. In a complete non-sequitur, The Slow Summits hail from Linköping, Sweden, but to be fair their bright sparkling music evokes the same sort of deep seated nostalgia in me, and I love it just as much. For those who know, there is a nuclear blast of recognition for their C86/Postcard/Sarah Records/Flying Nun sound: bright jingly jangly guitars, soaring melodies, and respectable air of naivety and tweeness in their sound.

Every Intention Listen to Every Intention by The Slow Summits #np on #SoundCloud

Nuevo disco de The Slow Summits! Abre de manera super positivista, veraniega, un hitazo "Dream On", y le sigue otro: "Louie, Louie". En general, salvo un par de baladas (muy apetecibles también esos rellanos) todo son dianas indie-pop. Lo han subido a Soundcloud: on.soundcloud.com/RNKAwNJTzY7G...

Thank you Jason!
