White Stains - Constant Summer by Holy Geometry published on 2020-04-26T17:07:12Z One could be forgiven, if stumbling upon some nameless wav files, for thinking the White Stains back catalogue was perhaps a collection of unfinished pre-2012 Lust For Youth tracks Hannes Norrvide never got round to vocalising. Layered, synthetic pads are held together under ultra-bright melodies and an all-encompassing lo-fi atmosphere. Yet herein lies the beauty of the project; that it can present a sense of absence and still feel, ultimately, fulfilling. But this new album is leap forward for White Stains' Belgian protagonist, Koenraad Impens. Pale Desires tip-toes tenderly the line between the washed-out synthpop of old and a move into a cleaner, more delicate territory. This is a far less aggressive incarnation of the project and whilst retaining some essential elements much of the harsh lo-fi aspect has been stripped away in favour of more ambient textures. It's a sign of maturity; once commanding presence, now reclining under fading neons, White Stains is perhaps becoming the project it always wanted to be. A1. Routines A2.
