Vinyl album (Ltd. Gatefold coloured ReVinyl LP) / 2024 InsideOutMusic
"Coming Up To Consciousness" is the bands sixth studio album and the third of their renaissance after the break that began with "Eupnea" and continued with "Above Cirrus". Like its 2 predecessors, the new album is also very personal. The 8 tracks deal with different types of darkness. The band's unmistakable style, which combines prog and pop through dreamy moods, epic riffs and angelic harmonies, has remained. However, Courtney and Jong have also tried to take a slightly different path by incorporating influences from Talk Talk, The Smile, Arctic Monkeys alongside their all-time favourites - above all Pink Floyd. Guy Pratt, who has worked with Pink Floyd among others, contributed bass guitar on seven of the eight tracks, while Jon Sykes of The Pineapple Thief played bass on one song. This version is printed on randomly coloured 100% recycled vinyl.
