Album Review: The Black Ryder - The Door Behind The Door

After a massive six-year wait, Sydney turned LA-based shoegazers The Black Ryder finally drop album number two.

They waste no time getting into dreamy sonic landscapes with the gorgeously lush Seventh Moon. Whilst the duo shares vocals, it’s Aimee Nash’s ethereal voice that haunts every song here, recalling Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser at their more immediate. The beauty of The Door Behind The Door lies in its insistence to not sit still; lush shoegaze and dream pop effects tie everything together, but each song feels like its own private world.
