Daysdream

by The Shop Window

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    The Shop Window announce news of their new 16 track double LP Daysdream, out 3rd May via Jangleshop Records. The new record follows on from 2022s A 4 Letter Word.

    The band see the double LP as being like two mini albums, a ‘Days’ and a ‘Dream’ record. ‘Days’ is filled with upbeat Janglepop/indiepop and ‘Dream’ with a more melancholic Dreampop/Shoegaze angle to it.

    This DIY record has been meticulously written, produced, mixed and mastered by now Wiltshire-based frontman Carl Mann. He recalls ‘I’ve always had a soundscape in my head of how we should sound as a band. I wanted this album to be more honest, fragile and human than our previous LPs. It has been a huge learning curve taking on all aspects of production, but every detail has been considered and I’m incredibly proud of the result. I’ve drawn on my own record collection and the sounds and direction of some of my favourites - The Smiths, Close Lobsters, The Stone Roses, Felt, The High, The Dentists, Cosmic Rough Riders, Teenage Fanclub, Mercury Rev, Spiritualized, Slowdive, Ride, Depeche Mode, The Cure and Asteroid No.4 have all played a tiny part in shaping this epic journey!’

    Includes digital pre-order of Daysdream. You get 4 tracks now (streaming via the free Bandcamp app and also available as a high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more), plus the complete album the moment it’s released.

I Run 03:07
I’m tearing up the rule book I don’t need lessons in life Been around the block some And know just what I want I see a look of fear On folks wandering around That ain’t me girl Your strength is infectious I run with a feeling To guide me home Ain’t nothing gonna steal me Away from here Don’t need to worry I’m yours ‘til the bitter end Live for your sparkles It’s more than enough you see You’re my firework Adding colour to the day Without you girl My life would be so grey I run with a feeling To guide me home Ain’t nothing gonna steal me Away from here I run with a feeling To guide me home Ain’t nothing gonna steal me Away from here

It's a High 03:20
When I’m seeming down Your light of day just washes over me A sun within a cloud When I’m not the clown You bring the circus and the bright lights And everything is now Sign of your love Washes over Healing me again It’s a high When I’m lost at sea Your lighthouse beams are there to guide me A port within my storm When I’m seeming down Your light of day just washes over me A sun within a cloud Sign of your love Washes over Healing me again It’s a high It’s a high, a high that nourishes It’s a life with you that touches this It’s a high, so never let it down It’s a high, so never let it down

Situation caused divide Don’t need this void in our lives I’m not so good at being strong Need you close where you belong My love… you give me everything I want to hold you To take the blues away Work so well as a team Being the norm is not my dream Sorry I’m not like all the rest I know you’ll push me to be my best My love… you give me everything I want to hold you To take the blues away If only for a day Take the blues away If only for a day Take the blues away

When I see your lonely face It takes time to understand As your mind floats in space And your life is in a distant land Crumbling walls beneath the stains Tears of hope will remain Evolution in reverse Find the god to ease the worst How can we save a world where we remain Open your eyes to see It’s coming around again Race beyond the grave Will it be in vain? Open your eyes to see It’s coming around again Revolutions fall apart Deviation from the plan How did we ever come this far Back to the grindstone for the man How can we save a world where we remain Open your eyes to see It’s coming around again Race beyond the grave Will it be in vain? Open your eyes to see It’s coming around again
