Album Review: Sliver Fleet Ships set sail into the darkness with their atmospheric debut album ‘Before Never, After Forever’. Nipaluna/Hobart band Silver Fleet Ships are signed to the tremendous Meanjin/Brisbane label False Peaks Records, and this is a sure guarantee of the quality you can except in their debut album 'Before Never, After Forever'. It's an album which bleeds atmosphere from every pore: statuesque and gilded with an Antarctic chill exacerbated by the sharp expressive guitar riffs that thread their way through every track. Opening track 'Before Never' is a smooth and floating entry that is delivered over a rambling piano: there is something of the classic 'Nilsson Sings Newman' album in the balladry and gentleness.

Track: Lutruwita/Tasmanian band Silver Fleet Ships ‘Do Nothin” in their own elegant, haunting way, ahead of debut album release. Third single from the Nipaluna/Hobart band Silver Fleet Ships, signed to the tremendous Meanjin/Brisbane label False Peaks Records, and things are just getting exponentially better. 'Do Nothin'' continues the post punk sparseness filled with atmosphere and a stately grace that typify this band. The track draws in elements of the deep southern Antarctic chill, coupled with melodies and delivery that are like a comforting burning fire in the hearth. A motorik beat introduces the track creating a driving thrum throughout, while the vocals are cold and distant, but slowly and surely the other instruments seep up through the floorboards with a throbbing bass and soothing synth bedrock with a hint of rippling guitars.
