ONCE WE WERE IMMORTAL


“Once We Were Immortal” is sublime LO FI electronic guitar pop that opens with “Take Me to the Rain”, a song sadder than loneliness itself. No Map has always been about overcoming the bullshit that surrounds us and leaving your mark, making life count. Resistance wherever possible, to the mundane insanity of state managers and cunts. The album peaks with “Colours Drift”, a shimmering slab of Echo & The Bunnymen, New Order and the Roses wrapped up in heartache and hope. “Before We’re Taken” did well as a single upon its release and “Where is the Sound” is guitars on E. “Lost Heart” speaks to all the sonic youth.
