Everything Else Matters
Released
Pinkshinyultrablast’s first full length album, 2015’s Everything Else Mattered, rapidly raised their profile and reputation in the worldwide shoegaze scene, thanks to the group’s skill at equally drawing on both the rock and roll side of the style and the shimmering textures which various electrogaze acts had brought further to the fore. “Wish We Were”’s split between murmuring flow and cascading feedback rampage captures the two sides very well, while the sparkling drive of “Umi” and the full-on crunch of “Metamorphosis” are two further highlights.
