"This is perfect music for the summer’s end, an album to be experienced under a thick blanket while watching the sun disappear behind the trees." - Wall Street Journal
“[everything is alive] is the antithesis of rigid, as it builds aglow and unravels like silk. Isn’t it a funny thing, how the experiments that once ostracized a band from critical spheres can now take a full, cohesive and dynamite shape on their best album yet?”— Paste
"everything is alive picks up where Slowdive left off, and turns the shoegaze conversation under a new light: They use this music not as numb escape, but a conduit for wonder.” — Stereogum
Today, Slowdive release their highly anticipated new album, everything is alive, via Dead Oceans. With it, the shoegaze legends present its final single/video, “alife,” unveil a major European (on sale Wed.
