"'Glance' is the kind of song you listen to in bed while staring at the ceiling, wondering if your crush or recent ex is thinking about you.It’s devastating, sprawling, and searching, with long-limbed guitar riffs and passionate vocals"

Want to hear the sound of summer? It’s this under-three-minute romp by @whitelands.bsky.social for the ever-excellent @soniccathedral.bsky.social - I snared the flexi.

(Incidentally, three minutes is the maximum time for a Eurovision entry. Maybe shoegaze is the way forward for the UK next year..?)

Sonic Cathedral @soniccathedral.bsky.social · Jun 19

ICYMI @whitelands.bsky.social released their new single today.

‘Heat Of The Summer’ came out on the hottest day of the year, and is available on all digital platforms and a limited-edition flexi disc which is exclusive to @bandcamp.com...
