While His Name Is Alive’s sound was in line with the gothic echoes of labelmates Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance, they also had a different, nonpareil quality, something existing on the boundary of this earth and another realm further underground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis Name Is Alive’s third record on 4AD, the first where the band controlled all processes including mixing, saw a marked shift; their most diverse, yet accessible catalogue entry. The project’s soaring growth over time allowed Defever to employ an extraordinarily adventuring approach to the record’s sound and vision, indulging his love for all kinds of music, be it tastes of looped dub (‘\u003cem\u003eLord, Make Me A Channel of Your Peace\u003c\/em\u003e’, ‘\u003cem\u003eThe Homesick Waltz\u003c\/em\u003e’), sugar-sweet 1960s pop (‘\u003cem\u003eBaby Fish Mouth\u003c\/em\u003e’, ‘\u003cem\u003eLip\u003c\/em\u003e’), distortion-laden dream-gaze (‘\u003cem\u003eCan’t Go Wrong Without You\u003c\/em\u003e’), evocative alt-noise (‘\u003cem\u003eSick\u003c\/em\u003e’), or strummy folk (‘\u003cem\u003eWhere Knock Is Open Wide\u003c\/em\u003e’). Embracing the surreal and turning their experimentalism up a notch and with Defever’s studio skills truly blossoming, many see this as a high point for the band.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"4AD","offers":[{"title":"LP - Vinyl","offer_id":57642498883929,"sku":"SDZ-15509","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/His_Name_Is_Alive_-_Mouth_By_Mouth__2024_Remastered_Edition__-_2026_Vinyl_Reissue.jpg?v=1774288380","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/his-name-is-alive-mouth-by-mouth-2024-remastered-edition-lp-vinyl","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
