A Shoegaze renaissance classic, first time on vinyl.

The shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP by Sway has influenced many a modern musician, shoegazer and non-shoegazer alike. Now, Saint Marie Records gives it the long awaited vinyl treatment. The record now weighs a bit more, thanks to the bonus track ‘Channel’ and its 180gm Coke bottle green transparent vinyl.

Sway began making noise in 1999, in Ventura, California. At the time, they were a four-piece garage rock outfit consisting of Andrew Saks, Amber Carlson, Seth Eubanks, and Vince Alatorre, playing shows and confusing audiences up and down the West Coast with its blurry wall of sound. They’re most known for the shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP released in 2003.

Andrew’s songwriting and sonic ideals are deeply rooted in the music he was surrounded by while coming of age: late ‘70s and ‘80s pop music.  Falling asleep nightly while listening to 1980s pop and R&B, and then waking up late at night in a dark dreamlike haze with New Order, Swing Out Sister, Talking Heads, Pet Shop Boys, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam whispering through his Walkman’s headphones, the sonic memory of such experiences keep Sway from ever giving itself over fully to the traditional shoegaze elements. The quest to recreate these musical properties is what later led Sway to embrace and be further influenced by the blissful textures of dreampop visionaries such as The Cocteau Twins, Medicine, and My Bloody Valentine.

In 2011, This Was Tomorrow was released by Saint Marie Records.  It was Sway’s first full-length release and its last.

Nightsorrow - Veil of the Universe (Single) (Argentine Dreampop/Ethereal Wave/Shoegaze)
Solo project of Vera Arianna Stork


Lyrics:

I see
I feel
I bleed
I'm free
Let me know
If I can be I


Veil of the whole universe
Bring you back to life
Sail off to life in reverse
What is mine is not mine
See the stars: they allign
The end is near, it's all in vain

I see
I feel
I bleed
I'm free


Veil of the whole universe
Bring you back to life
Sail off to life in reverse
What is mine is not mine
See the stars: they allign
The end is near, its all in vain


Whispers of emptyness
Silence, dissolved hapiness
Seeking my own shadows
Lead us Mother into our selfs

Whispers of emptyness
Silence, dissolved hapiness



Rain falls down
My fears, my home
Tears have fallen
Hear my calling

Rain falls down
My fears, my home
Tears have fallen
Hear my calling

-----------------------------------------
Veil of the Universe is the new single by Nightsorrow, a sonic journey where dream pop, shoegaze, and ethereal wave intertwine to create a luminous yet melancholic atmosphere.

With whispered vocals that float like another instrument, the track unfolds through layers of guitars and infinite reverbs, evoking both the immensity of the cosmos and the fragility of the human spirit. It captures the duality of distant beauty: comfort and loss, light and shadow.

Inspired by the tradition of Cocteau Twins, Slowdive, and Beach House, Nightsorrow delivers a piece that doesn’t seek answers, but instead invites the listener into a state of dreamy introspection.

“Veil of the Universe” is an ethereal hymn, a prayer shaped in sonic haze.
