"The absence of traditional verse-chorus structures in both songs reflects Delta of Venus’ philosophy: music as a process of movement and evolution rather than static repetition. Each track becomes a living entity, revolving and unfolding rather than resolving. This architectural approach to composition, where movements overlap and intertwine, feels like an auditory manifestation of how human thought works – layered, recursive, and nonlinear."
"This double single does not just mark the return of the group: it signals a profound transformation. By abandoning conventions, Delta of Venus creates music of rare singularity, an exploration where each movement, each note, invites us to a new sound experience. More than a simple return, this double single is an invitation to redefine the contours of their genre and to savor the ephemeral beauty of their compositions."
"While the influence of classic shoegaze bands like My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive is evident, Delta of Venus has carved out their own niche, blending lush instrumentation with a unique songwriting style. Their music is more than just a sound; it’s a journey—one that invites listeners to lose themselves in the atmospheric depth and emotional weight of each track."
This double single is more than a comeback; it is a reintroduction of the band’s unique ability to fuse electronic textures with a rock foundation. Recorded at Dirt Floor Studios in Haddam, Connecticut, these two tracks encapsulate the essence of a band that continues to push the boundaries of shoegaze and dream pop. Each song offers a distinct emotional journey, yet together, they form a cohesive narrative about longing, introspection, and the passage of time."
"The production of the song is quite creative and brilliant, which truly adds to its authenticity. Without any unnecessary fuss and noise, the song creates a beautiful tapestry of sounds, thriving on simplicity and creativity. Even the songwriting contributes a lot to the overall effect of this track. Deep and melancholic, the lyrics are truly heartfelt, exploring vulnerability in the best of ways.
This is a great rock pop number that you shouldn’t miss out on. "
"Delta of Venus’ interpretation of shoegaze and indie pop is one of the EP’s most compelling aspects. While they retain the genre’s signature qualities—lush reverb, swirling guitars, and introspective tones—they’ve sidestepped its clichés in favor of a more architectural approach. The result is music that feels intentional and carefully constructed, rather than aimlessly drifting."
"I love it when a band takes those things I love and grew up on, in this case accessible, indie music and clever pop, and reinvents it for a new era. It’s how the music scene moves on. And that is precisely what Delta of Venus is doing here."
