Pastel - Souls In Motion


 Pastel debut album, 'Souls In Motion', is a heartfelt tribute to the golden age of British rock, seamlessly blending the brash confidence of Britpop, the dreamy textures of shoegaze, and a touch of psychedelia. Tracks like 'Heroes Blood' and 'Your Day' highlight the band’s ability to honor legendary influences such as Oasis, The Verve, and The Stone Roses while carving out their own identity. With evocative lyrics, assured vocals, and intricate instrumentation, the album radiates both nostalgia and originality, making it a standout addition to the modern music scene.  



Recorded over a year in their basement studio, 'Souls In Motion' showcases a balance of raw power and tender vulnerability. Fan favorites like 'Deeper Than Holy' sit comfortably alongside newer tracks, such as the atmospheric 'Leave A Light On (A Velvet Storm)', demonstrating the band’s range and ambition. Rooted in their Manchester heritage, the album is both a nod to the past and a bold declaration of their potential. Pastel’s polished debut promises not only a reverence for rock history but also an exciting glimpse of what’s to come.
