In a two year span Screen Vinyl Image soaked themselves deeper in tons
of analogue synthpop and neurotic disco/house basslines. Still there's
a shimmering shoegaze root mostly in the use of delays and in the
singing parts.The opening track is called “Synthetic Apparition” and
it's an trance-inducing instrumental resembling the first Popol-Vuh
records played at double speed ( or maybe Popol-Vuh on speed? ) - then
we have “Cathode Ray” where you'll hear a simple catchy refrain under
layers and layers of distortions. “Slipping Away” is a slow-paced
track, imagine Slowdive's aesthetics produced by Adult. “Asteroid
Exile” grants goosebumps to everyone into synths – a cold pop gem that
will stand as the band's timeless testament. Personal favourite, as you
may have noticed. Another standout here is “Until The End Of Time” with
a killer postpunk guitar bass. All tracks on Interceptors are quite
different but seem to morph into each other like in the most cohesive
ambient albums or soundtracks ( John Carpenter and Tangerine Dream are
stated among the influences ), a step further from the previous The
Midnight Sun EP. Out on their own safranin-sound on a Vinyl/CD combo.
