Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
If something doesn’t fit, you make room it wherever you can; nothing should ever be discarded or found to be unwanted, the point of life is not minimalism, but to crowd every sector of your life and space of your being with memories and recollections, of memorials to those we have loved and sadly lost.

The enduring mythologies of life are such that we sorely forget their traditional ways of capturing an audience at our peril; for there is more to be found within our realms than many give credit too, or even acknowledge. For the hearts that dare suggest nothing can come of legend, have not had their soul inflamed by the sound of the saga ringing in their ears and digging deep into their own D.N.A., for in the epic there is an abundance of life, and it springs eternally from the fountain of the symphonically powerful.

The cathartic nature of art is such that in the worst moments of our life we can find something in the ether or a structure created by hands in tune with grief, melancholy, or even the desperation of objectionable misery, that will raise the spirit, give meaning to the time in such a way that it aids forgiveness of our own mistakes, as much as it furthers the embrace of clemency with those who sought to destroy us.

Fifty years ago the world awoke to the sound of what many describe as the greatest concept album of all time, at a stroke the ability to place an entire Progressive narrative down on a double album was presented in such a way that to this day The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway almost has a spell of mysticism surrounding it, an air of Progressive theology that has taken on its own place in time that few albums of its genre can match or emulate.

Embrace it all, every crackle, pop, and effect, behold the fierce nature of the live recording when it hasn’t been polished to a studio standard, for being able to hear something from a period before your time is a gift of opportunity that requires acceptance, investigation, enjoyment.

Birmingham’s musical history is arguably only surpassed by the city on the Mersey, and for that its past must be respected, and that which comes from its future given a full hearing of possible appreciation.
In a part of the country that gave the world bands such as Magnum, Duran Duran, The Twang, Black Sabbath, ELO, and Esoteric, the ability to be different, to be directly involved with the pulse of the city and spread the message out beyond the river Rae and its vast network of canals, to strike a chord of your own is an act of powerful consideration; and in Solar Eyes and their self-titled debut album, the fluid and considerable vastness of the musical sense of self explodes with virtue and belief all over the aural networks and cognitive reasoning.

The point of momentum is that it must be given a reason to continue, and lest inertia or entropy emerge and eat away at the beauty of the energy provided, like rust on a steel heart, it must not only Get Goin’, but it must also be prepared to avoid the effects of Time that suggests that the end is a welcome release.

The clouds and storms of late have been moody, mean, and arguably fierce beyond compare, they have blocked our collective sight from seeing the land of safety and creativity from the air; and all we have been able to witness is the constant tsunami as it circles the world with terrifying speed.
Flying On Instruments alone does not always mean we have navigated from above with a greater precision than those who steer ships through the storm, but it can often be the truth that those that do might get to see and feel the warmth of the sun earlier and the land of opportunity and redemption with greater clarity.

We Just Call It Love, and for some it may be a momentary lapse of reason in their day-to-day existence, a blip that starts to consume their being, that takes their brain and soul on a journey together which often defies reason; right until it makes sense, and then the harmony observed is crucial to the heart’s own intentions of feeling alive.
Art in any form is love, and no matter how you may find your own way to have your heartbeat faster, there is a part reserved for the classic of another’s tune to ignite a fire in your body that you may learn you should never have ignored.

It is uncommon to find yourself that struck by beauty that for a while it is impossible to convey exactly what you have witnessed. The temptation to flourish on the immediate arguably detrimental to the truth of your feelings, and it must be avoided at all costs lest your own quality fade.
