Earlier this year, Liverpool’s Tear Talk released 7″ B R E A T H E on exciting independent label Bleeding Gold. The track showcased a band with a very clear sense of identity and vision – sparse and minimal guitar (its hard not to make comparisons with The XX) slowly revealed new elements and colours – distorted, fuzzy and painted darkly onto the canvas.
Sleepwalking is much more immediate and hints at a less bleak outlook. Josh Miller’s vocals cutting dreamily through like Echo & The Bunnymen drenched in sunshine. Its not as experimental but all the better for it.
