Shedding Velvet [LP]

Nymphlord – Shedding Velvet [LP]

With nods to 90s alt and earlier folkmusic Nymphlords debut albumShedding Velvet explores what happenswhen dreaming big starts to feelimpractical: the friction between fantasyand reality. Its a collection ofdisillusioned and resilient coming-of-ageanthems. Pleasantly off-kilter with a drywit the songs make you want to singalong even as they push away fromtraditional pop structures. Her vocalscarve out gentle confessionals across thetracklist underpinned by plucky acousticguitars then engulfed by raw electricswells. Throughout Shedding VelvetNymphlord presents a portrait of identityin process velvet peeled back to show thebone. Angsty ethereal dissonant andhopeful she welcomes you into herovergrown garden.1.Garden2.Candy3.DeepCut4.Summer’035.Star6.Emptiness7.PaperorPlastic?8.Filter9.Abyss10.GoodTimeDiner
