Another Tune from the Grey Factor Reissue LP
Listening on repeat this morning, it’s crazy to even think that Grey Factor were crafting tracks like this in the late 70s/early 80s; I mean how the fuck did the musical world go so wrong! Honestly, the slow-pacing of the band’s synth construction here seems perfectly fit for our world, a reminder that we should all allow ourselves to slow down. As the band does this, the fuzz of the synths buzz your ears, the guitar notes twinkling in the distance, creating this cavernous feel, adding a huge depth to the vibe. You’re seduced by the blanketing solemnity of the vocals, then as you reach the 2 minute mark they erupt with an almost pained burst of joy, raising the song even further. Grey Factor: 1979-1980 AD – The Complete Studio Recordings will be available on January 27th via Damaged Disco.
