“Skeletal, celestial shoegaze (that) reflects the cold beauty of the Austrian Alps.” - Stereogum
Austrian duo MOLLY release their debut album All That Ever Could Have Been via Sonic Cathedral and Dalliance Recordings on June 28. Available on limited double Alpine clover coloured vinyl, CD and digital.
Innsbruck-based Lars Andersson and Phillip Dornauer’s shoegaze-inspired beginnings coalesced on their acclaimed 2017 EP, Glimpse, which did just as it said, offering a tantalising peek into their world; the full, glorious vista is now revealed on their accomplished debut album. And All That Ever Could Have Been really is breathtaking. It begins with an almost 15-minute post-rock epic and takes in nods to ambient, dreampop and prog, with echoes of Galaxie 500, Low, Beachwood Sparks, Dungen, The Besnard Lakes, Sigur Rós, M83 and Cigarettes After Sex. Its eight tracks belie both the band’s youth and their small number, forming a mountain of sound that suggests they are more of a geological outfit than a musical one.
