Our Take

MOTHERS' debut album, "When You Walk A Long Distance You Are Tired," is a charming yet complex exploration of love, loss, and self-discovery. Lead singer Kristen Gundred's ethereal vocals float effortlessly over a backdrop of intricate guitar melodies and intricate percussion, creating a lush sonic landscape that is both intimate and expansive.

From the haunting opening track "Too Small for Eyes" to the anthemic closer "Hold Your Own Hand," this album takes listeners on a emotional journey through the highs and lows of human experience. The band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, from folk to shoegaze to post-rock, is a testament to their musical prowess and versatility.

Standout tracks include the dreamy ballad "It Hurts Until It Doesn't," the infectious indie-pop gem "Copper Mines," and the soaring epic "Nesting Behaviour." The production, handled by John Congleton, is crisp and dynamic, allowing each instrument to shine while maintaining a sense of intimacy and warmth.

Overall, "When You Walk A Long Distance You Are Tired" is a stunning debut from a band that is sure to make waves in the indie music scene. MOTHERS have crafted a beautiful and poignant album that will resonate with listeners for years to come. So grab a cup of tea, settle in with some headphones, and let MOTHERS take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Cheers.
