Midas Fall– ‘Fluorescent Lights’ EP (Monotreme Records, Out 2.12.2013)
UK alt-post-progressive rock band Midas Fall follow up their second album, Wilderness’, with the release of a new 3-track EP. ‘Fluorescent Lights’ on 2 December.
The bands long standing post-rock credentials mixed with light and dark of ‘Low’ immediately works, resonates comfortably, before more atmospheric and on occasion charged moments, all delivered with a steady artistic hand over the course of the ‘Fluorescent Lights’ EP. Not too much has changed, for all the fans of Midas Fall and all they have come to know; the combination of thundering melodic rock guitar with electronic flourishes and Elizabeth Heaton’s soaring melancholic vocals in ’Low’, the delicate confessional intimacy of ‘Tracks’ and the epically ascending pop of title track ‘Fluorescent Lights’.
And they say variety is the spice of life! 7.8/10
