Absent Forever is the newest album from London-based producer Plastic Flowers - his third full-length LP and the second for The Native Sound after Heavenly. Plastic Flowers formed vaguely around 2011 in Thessaloniki, Greece and play a noisy version of Dream Pop filed under Shoegaze, Ambient and Indie. Much like his previous releases on labels such as Crash Symbols, Inner Ear Records or Bad Panda, this new album artfully slips intelligence and experimentation into a dying art form.

Recordings were completed in less than three months in 2017 and the album comprises of ten tracks that have been around George’s hard drive in demo form since early 2013. For this record Plastic Flowers recorded himself onto tape in different DIY spaces around London, including a friend’s old house in Hampstead and his small home studio. While dealing with massive academic workload and stress for his PhD, he managed to completely reshape Plastic Flowers’ sound with a new record that captures the analog aesthetics and the warm sound of the tape. As part of the creative process, he collaborated with a string quartet and his ex bandmate Angelos who assisted in the recordings.

Absent Forever finds Plastic Flowers hopeful and heavy, a new direction for those familiar with his music. It still possess the pensive and melancholy undertones taken of Heavenly, but they take different forms and themes. There are different ways to find growth and constructiveness through the times and situations that are labelled as negative, but through this album Samaras explores themes of personal flaws and downfalls that changed his life and helped him complete Absent Forever.

Absent Forever is out November 10th on vinyl and digitally via The Native Sound.

Plastic Flowers – Dalliance

everyone in the room stand still  

I got a feeling deep inside
will i get out of this alive?
will i get out of this unscathed?
i sure hope that you think i'm brave

everyone in the room stand still  

i am inside a crocodile
don't ask me why i'm in denial
if i was in a bible verse 
i wonder if my mom'd be proud

life can be tough it can be mean
it can be a big bad machine
but baby i just found a way
out of the crocodile today

everyone in the room stand still

Powdered sugar feet move so light and sweet
You float towards me every night in my dreams
Please don’t go away, you make me feel ok
I hope one day that you’ll love me this way

Powdered sugar heart, you live life like an art
Stay a while because you make me smile
I am too shy to say that you make me feel this way
Please don’t go away cuz to me your everything.

You're everything, everything to me
Now I’m so afraid why can’t these feelings go away
You're everything, everything to me
Because you have made me see the kind of person I want to be

Powdered sugar feet move so light and sweet
You float towards me every night in my dreams
Please don’t go away, you make me feel ok
I hope one day that you’ll love me this way

Life In Outer Space (lyrics)

She took me to the park
The one next to the flower shop
People dress the same
You make it feel ok
She puts me on the train
She’s dancing in the dining car
The chaos in your brain
I knew you were special

Lately lately
Baby baby
Takes me takes me
Wherever she wants
I know always
I know nothing
I’ll be I’ll be
Wherever you are

She turned on the news
They say it’s a catastrophe
We’ll be under water
Too bad for our daughters
She took me by the hand
Got us on a satellite
It’s life in outer space
I knew you were special

Chorus

We’ll land safely
Someday maybe
Drifting deeper
Into the dark
To a random planet
Like she planned it
Safe from humans
Where we can suvive

Lately lately
Baby baby
Takes me takes me
Wherever she wants
I know always
I know one thing
I’ll be I’ll be 
Wherever you are
