Mystic Park’s latest venture seamlessly merges art rock, chillout, and alt-country elements, creating a mesmerising cosmic backdrop. The groundbreaking music video for the title track, Silver Lining, accompanies the album release.
Shann Lions, who is best known as the frontman of Bendigo roots rockers Four Lions, draws inspiration from a diverse range of musical pioneers, Lions weaves together a tapestry of influences that can be traced back to artists like The Cure, War On Drugs, Neil Young, and Angelo Badalamenti, the genius behind the iconic Twin Peaks soundtrack.
Through a collection of synth-heavy and eclectic tracks, Lions showcases his versatility and virtuosity by playing the majority of the instruments on the album. Lions also infuses the beats with pulsating energy, channeling the rhythmic prowess of Jim White from Dirty Three and the creative genius of RZA from Wu-Tang Clan.
Co-produced with Finn Keane at Melbourne’s prestigious Head Gap studio, the latest album is a testament to Lions’ meticulous attention to detail, ensuring an immersive experience that transcends expectations, leaving viewers in awe of the convergence of art forms.
Silver Lining was released on June 1 through Lions’ own Verse Chorus Verse label.
