"Innerlayer" by Rippedd
New album from Kyiv shoegaze project, Rippedd. Especially liking the dream noise with simple, minimal, if any, drums on Rippedd’s Innerlayer … “howls”, “pulse the dawn” and closing tune “moon starts/ends” are all fairly emotional instrumentals, going from tender to stasis to confused-but-calm sadness.
Stand-out tune “star ceiling” is a foray into indie pop for Rippedd, reminding nicely (for us old people) of Radio Dept.’s “Pulling Our Own Weight”.
Innerlayer is the 2nd album by Rippedd. Check out the blank mood Q&A with the Rippedd about first album, “maybe in another life?”.
