There aren’t many places where grunge and groove meet, and fewer still where that resulting sound intersects a line where shoegaze intensity blurs into the boundaries of alt-rock anthemics. But, if you were ever lucky enough to stumble across such sacred sonic ground, you would undoubtedly find TV Face sat there waiting for you. Probably with the look on their faces that translates to something like “well, you damned well took your time getting here,” Or worse!
“White Noise White Lies” is a song that ebbs and flows between the bleak and the beautiful, the understated and the explosive, Bauhausian moods and barking, staccato vocals, but is never bombast for the sake of it; instead, it creates smart dynamics to shape the song, allowing it to effortlessly, and ften unexpectedly move between the cooler, darker end of shoegaze sounds and explosive, urgent grunge sonics forging brilliant and brutal soundscapes as it does so.
TV Face may have perfected the art of blending those dark and delicious sonics, sounds which wander the liminal spaces between gothic music proper and alt-rock, between post-punk and post-rock, between delicacy and devastation, the groovesome and the grand. However, it is their ability to take recognizable sounds and styles and build something refreshing and unique out of them, a skill that sets them head and shoulders above the other sonic denizens of the night.
