Lyrics:
wait, cause I’ll be there
I won’t get out till 5pm
but after all this work, I’ll be fine
we’ll write a new song every night

a scene from
our past lives
we’re at the cinema
intending to be free

like strangers
in tandem
romanticising
the way you look at me - and I look at you

midnight, days go by
but there’s simply no way I could care
cause we won’t fuck around, all is right
we’re wandering, we can’t be found

a scene from
our past lives
we’re at the cinema
intending to be free

like strangers 
in tandem
romanticising
the way you look at me

like strangers
in tandem
we’re at the cinema
we won’t be leaving soon

Like Strangers

SF Bay Area textural pop group Torrey delve deep into a translucent dreamworld on their self-titled sophomore album. Bending classic shoegaze, rainy day indie rock sounds, and 90s alt rock flair into more intricate forms, the band uses these guitar-forward songs to shape-shift between gentle drifting and noisy breakthroughs. Some touchstones might include Lush, Drop Nineteens, Cocteau Twins and The Breeders, but Torrey have a deft grasp of their craft and a forward-thinking studio approach that places them very much in the NOW. Singles like "No Matter How," "Bounce" and "Moving" are pure 2024 and place Torrey firmly alongside like-minded groups like Seablite, Mo Dotti, Winter and Alvvays who are enlivening a similar set of inspirations.

It's fitting that Torrey's most masterfully crafted album is also their first for Slumberland. As the album plays out, it perfectly arranges contradictory expressions of angst and tenderness, exaltation and melancholy, restlessness and acceptance. These songs are obsession-worthy for any dream pop enthusiast, with Torrey managing to call on some
familiar spirits for guidance while sounding more like themselves than ever before.

Paradise

Wishy - Spinning

So long shadow
Arboreal wind
Festoon your room with this dying scent
Cut it up
Light it down
Let me liberate you of your wasted ground

Soft saw
Only one I want to know
Soft saw
Only one I want to know
Off all
Enter winter hoping so

So you could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
You could cut me down
Saw away

You could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
While I fall away

Come all ye faithful
Joyful conquerors
Nothing you can’t have
All consuming urge
By your bone fire when season’s through with you
No sooner sated than I ate my fill for two

Soft axe
Only one I want to know
Soft axe
Only one I want to know
Off axis
Enter winter hoping so

So you could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
You could cut me down
Saw away

You could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
While I fall away
Why I fall away

Soft axe
Soft axe
Soft saw
Soft saw

So you could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
You could cut me down
Saw a way

You could cut me down as long as you drag me in the house
Why I fall away
Why I fall away
Why I fall away
