Our Take

CRANES Forever (30th Anniversary Edition) (Coloured Vinyl) Review:

Picture this: it's 1993, you're wearing your baggiest jeans, and the haunting yet ethereal sounds of Cranes are blasting through your boombox. Fast forward to 2021, and the band's iconic album "Forever" is celebrating its 30th anniversary with a snazzy coloured vinyl reissue.

Upon spinning this record, you are immediately transported back to a time when shoegaze ruled the airwaves and grunge reigned supreme. Alison Shaw's otherworldly vocals float over shimmering guitars and melancholic melodies, creating a sonic landscape that is both dreamy and unapologetically moody.

Tracks like "Jewel" and "Adrift" showcase the band's ability to blend ethereal beauty with raw emotion, while "Paris and Rome" brings a sense of urgency and intensity that is as captivating as it is disarming. The bonus tracks on this anniversary edition only serve to enhance the overall listening experience, offering fans a fresh perspective on a beloved classic.

In conclusion, Cranes' "Forever" (30th Anniversary Edition) is a must-have for any shoegaze enthusiast or lover of nostalgic 90s vibes. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let the music take you on a journey through time and space. Happy listening, music lovers.

Cranes

Cranes, the enigmatic duo hailing from the misty moors of Northern England, have been captivating audiences with their haunting melodies and ethereal vocals since the early 90s. Comprised of siblings Alison and Jim Shaw, Cranes have carved out a niche for themselves in the alternative music scene, blending elements of dream pop, shoegaze, and gothic rock to create a sound that is uniquely their own. With a discography spanning over three decades, Cranes have released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including their seminal debut "Wings of Joy" and the atmospheric "Forever". Known for their evocative lyrics and atmospheric soundscapes, Cranes have garnered a dedicated cult following and have influenced a generation of musicians with their innovative approach to songwriting. Alison Shaw's haunting vocals are the heart and soul of Cranes, soaring above Jim Shaw's intricate guitar work and atmospheric production. The duo's live performances are a mesmerizing experience, with Alison's ethereal voice floating effortlessly over the swirling soundscapes created by Jim's masterful musicianship. Despite their decades in the industry, Cranes remain a somewhat elusive presence, shying away from the spotlight and letting their music speak for itself.

So sit back, close your eyes, and let Cranes take you on a journey through the dark and dreamy landscape of their music. You won't be disappointed.
