Description Pressing Info Chicago’s Sleepwalk has cemented themselves in the nugaze scene, combining the intensity of post-hardcore with the lush fuzziness and gentle vocal stylings of shoegaze. Of course, their sound also includes some hometown flavor, with noticeable influence from bands such as The Smashing Pumpkins and HUM. Providing a crossover sound that can attract multiple types of audiences, they have shared the stage with acts such as Glassjaw, Thursday, and Hotline TNT. In anticipation of their upcoming tour with The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die and ASkySoBlack, their album “Splatter” is available on vinyl for the first time ever. With songs such as Flesh and Craving showing their punk influence, contrasted by the tracks Bumblebee and Crumble, which provide a shoegaze - and at times emo - palette cleansing, “Splatter” is a perfect showcase of Sleepwalk’s maxim: “Heavy music for the light hearted.” TRACK LISTING:01.
