THE SLOW SIGNAL FADE - THROUGH THE OPAQUE AIR
CD review by Night Watchman

Through The Opaque Air is a fitting title for the six-song EP by The Slow Signal Fade. The soaring vocals of Marguerite Olivelle cut through the fog of reverb-soaked guitars and plodding bass lines in a way that reminds me of The Cranberries, with touches of Miranda Sex Garden. A dark, moody callback to the halcyon days of This Mortal Coil and The Jesus and Mary Chain.

The Slow Signal Fade sounds most like Switchblade Symphony to me, though, so if you’re a big fan of Switchblade’s blend of mood and atmosphere, you owe it to yourself to see what these guys are all about.

Clocking in at over 35 minutes, Through The Opaque Air is well worth checking out.
