Textures have reformed and are touring round Europe as I write this. I wondered if they were going to reissue something from the back catalogue or record a new record (pretty please) because you gotta have something to promote on tour right? Anyway, they went for the reissue of the classic Silhouettes album.

It’s heavy as a heavy thing on a heavy train to heavy town, I love this album. Lots of light and shade mixed in with the crunch and the groovy time signatures for you to drool over. However much I love the heavy guitars and deep groovy rhythms I always go back to Awake, with those beautiful melodic vocals as my favourite tune. Yes, I know there are growls in there as well but it’s such a beautiful thing it just tugs at my soul.

This band should be HUGE! Go and find this album and any other Textures album so they can go and record a new opus just foe me. 😇
