Lowgold’s Promise Lands is full of human warmth. Every song, from the contemplative opener Clear, a testament to “letting go”, to the angry energy of Dead Sea, bears witness to the fact this music was “written purely for the joy of writing songs”, uncompromised by thoughts of release schedules and sales figures. Nothing Stays The Same cuts loose from its fear of the unknown with a burst of guitar adrenalin; Just Like Skin uses bitter experience to acid-etch a magnificent song; Hope And Reason ends the record with stately yet heartbreaking survey of the terrain of sadness. Promise Lands is a record clouded with loss but it also shows how much Lowgold - and their listeners - still have to gain from their music.
