Real talk, my heart has been really heavy the past couple of days, and the gray skies outside have not really uplifted my spirits. But the new record from GLIXEN entitled She Only Said is making me feel more than better! Listening to songs like “Splendor” are making me have visions of love and unity instead of visions of beheading racist scum bags! This ShoeGaze/Dream Pop band has manifested a collection of songs that are sonic spaceships that will allow our brain cells to travel to spaces where all of our bodies are safe, no matter our color! I love the vocalist’s tone and delivery. As a band, GLIXEN injects rad energy into all of their songs. Big tunes like “Moodswing” are having a positive effect on my trauma right now, which is why I have it on repeat. This band makes me want to reach for the stars while holding on to all that’s good around me. GLIXEN are masters at creating space for all of their emotions and bringing the listener into their awesome sonicverse. She Only Said is a highlight in the ShoeGaze/DreamPop soundscape of 2023!
