Built Guilt $19.99 (AUD) They say to keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but how do you handle encounters with creatures so wicked they drift into your dreams and haunt your being? Sucker punch them from the inside, and write your next album for the nasty beasts, dedicating each and every note, lyric, strum and beat to their extinction. This how Sydney four piece, Shady Lane, have tackled terror in their second album, Built Guilt, a wistful but wise big brother to 2009's Here We Go, Down the Black Hole. Comrades in arms, Shady Lane consists of the project's mastermi! nd, Jord y Lane on guitars and vocals, with Pete Avard on drums, Sarah Jullienne on synth and Conrad Richters (Richard In Your Mind) on bass (with Mark Piccles of Tin Sparrow on bass touring duties). Built Guilt's ingredients include healthy levels of cynicism and a kitschy quirk, its beautifully crafted pop, twisted just slightly. The album pairs analogue synth and radiant vocals that float dreamily through your ears with the rawness |
