hellens

latest from the ever excellent gerpfast kolektif imprint, sadly we’ve only two tracks to go on via the bandcamp preview – wish the blighters would send over downloads to these things. grumbles aside this little lovely is set to appear in Indonesian localities on Record Store Day, the EP entitled ‘distancia’ is by Hellens – an Indonesian six piece who quite frankly do the most adorable and angelic sounding dream pop we’ve had the pleasure of hearing this side of a Lillies on Mars visitation. no doubt well versed in all things My Bloody Valentine, Hellens’ sweetly shy eyed murmur tones comes draped in the ear candy dream drift toning of effervescent sonic sunbursts which on the vapour trailing beauty ‘fadeaway’ yearn and turn teasingly to the stately siren-esque grace fall of a lovelorn Slowdive. not to be outdone ‘losing distance’ here in its ‘old version’ variant is elegantly traced in the intimate bruising purr of a tear stained and vulnerable Melys at their most wounded and finest whilst wrapped in the touching cuddle of Cocteau-ian corteges. blissfully beautiful.
