(scott) Just popped this one on today, pretty good one.......it's sort of the shoe-gaze kind of distorted rock that I've favored of late, however, it's cleaned up a bit as though attempting to draw closer to traditional sound structures.......in other words, it's fucking pscyh-rock ala 2017 at it's finest......."Follow Light" the opening track is a wonderful 2017 piece of 1960's psych......"You Line" is a bit more like the distortion heavy stuff we expect from this genre, "She Came This Way" is a snappy rocker, and this all told, is one fine album that you need to hear. Thanks to the always on top of the game John N for this kickass slab!

The Gentle Cycle is utilizing vintage gear and a bygone recording ethos to birth a swirling, grooving style of rock ‘n’ roll that’s both timeless and relevant. The band come from an abstract foundation that’s more modern & forward thinking than most musicians beholden to period-correct tones. The Gentle Cycle balances universal emotions with astral, atmospheric sonic architecture.
