Outstanding!  Blogged at <a href="http://thisisthatsong.wordpress.com/2013/10/21/10-21-13-reunion-by-tears-run-rings/">This is That Song</a> on 21 October, 2013.

A bit of some great stuff

This classic SWAY EP leads off with "Winter Heart", a beautiful epic number nestled perfectly into the space of just a few minutes. Side A closes out with "Days Are Long", which then leads to side B, kicking off with "Days (Reprise)", and wrapped up with "Base Audit". It's a perfect soundtrack for walking down your snow packed street, headphones on, but feeling warm all over. Likewise, it sounds just as perfect while kicked back on the deck of your boat with 95 degree sun beaming down on your smiling face.

GETTING BY

Since early 2012, Miniatures have been crafting compelling and evocative tunes. New Zealand expatriates Ché Walden and Annemarie Duff craft cinematic and emotive soundscapes, wrapped around warm and welcoming songs. With the addition of Chris MacLean on bass, the band worked with renowned Melbourne producer Matthew Hosking to record their first full LP, exclusive to Saint Marie Records.

Layering rich tones, beautiful textures, cascading melodies and angelic vocals, Miniatures build soundscapes that rise and fall like the ocean tide. Lush guitars wash over you until the wave of sound sweeps you out to sea. While swirling in a reverb riptide and drowning in delay, Annemarie's vocals shine like a beaming light from above.

Sure, you’ll pick up influences here and there: The Sundays, Lush, Cocteau Twins, Smashing Pumpkins, even a hint of Johnny Marr’s guitar adventurism. But ‘Jessamines’ is more than a sum of its influences. Miniatures have been working at careful songcraft for five years, and this is their coming out party. From track to track, Miniatures have crafted an album’s album, a journey through colour and mood, high and low, fuzzy and shiny, light and shade. Allow the waves to take you, and prepare to be swept away.

the sun is setting on this town
where rust and ivy intertwine
where past and present remain bound
in all the things we leave behind

because spirits linger
cities whisper
of who we once were
repeating over

It echoes all throughout this town
a past more present than it seems
With pained reminders all around
of whats no longer history

Reunion
