Heaven Up Here
Echo & The Bunnymen
Dark and atmospheric, this record marks a shift toward a colder and more cavernous style for the band. It trades the youthful energy of their first release for a heavy, rhythmic focus that characterizes their shift in tone.
Tracking took place at Rockfield Studios, where the production highlights a stark and empty space. This environment suits the icy aesthetic chosen by the group. The final result favors tension and texture over conventional pop melodies.
