"We can not ignore the fact that certain proposals such as this of Lips Against The Glass, Vivid Colour, are devilishly sensory experience to circle without delay. [...] A processing thread that leads to rebound - as in a placebo ancestral - between ambient, blood wavers, electronics and all the range that a sweet hypnotism can pull out of the ordinary, a work in ten tracks that travels without cardinal or prospective address, a wonderful "mental breakdown" that captures you from the concrete and square the independence of the absurd.

"Vivid Color by Lips Against the Glass is a work of fine electronic, in which electronic guitar and harmonies, whispering voices and melodies vaguely post-rock blend to create a pleasant mood as melancholy. A disk that is extremely easy to get lost among all those glitch sounds, pads environmental rarefied sound and the repeated bass lines and full-bodied that swell earphones. seems a little return back to the time when bands like mum or Lali Puna invaded the home of the major music sites, even when the message boards of social networks were not invaded by the UK bass sound." - DLSO

"Album that seems to give voice at the thought of Ernst Bloch: "the moment is an impalpable pulse that precludes any life experience: it can not be grasped except when there is not, as has already happened and when is yet to come." " - Stordisco

"Their compositions are dances interrupted between spaces without gravity, just caressed by tenuous vocal flows whispering quietly between the notes and arpeggios in reverb like drops of dream that imbibe writing of neo-romantics moods" - Rockerilla

"In the end, emerging from the emotional tangle of this sonic adventure is not easy: vivid colours, including artificial lighting, warm tones and nocturnal brushstrokes." - Rockit

From the Bolognese scene, emerges Lips Against The Glass; revealing a kaleidoscopic album called "Vivid Colour" which evokes a deep ambiance precisely accomplished with glassy/glitchy environments entirely spacial, accomplishing a very honest debut album. The band revealed that they decided to devote only a short period of time to write and record the album because they wanted it to preserve some kind of instinct. They’ve managed to extrapolate a moment of astonishment right before the advent of something, drawing a multi-colored record. - Bizzarre.co.uk

Bio
Lips Against The Glass (Seahorse Recordings/New Model Label/Audioglobe - Bologna, Italy). They started their activity since 2010, through live-set and dj set, keeping an eye even to the world of IDM and remixing.
Lips Against the Glass have now published their first effort on Seahorse Recordings. “Vivid Colour”, recorded by Paolo Messere, appears as an “ibrid album”, mid way between elements that reminds of shoegaze and indie (especially in the vocals but also in some guitar parts) and an hypnotic electronic sound mixed with claustrophobic atmosphere. The result is without any doubt something unique. “Vivid Colour” is like a long mind travel through sensations and dark moods and feelings.
The band itself about the album:
“This record has been written and recorded in a very short time, to preserve some kind of instinct: actually the chance of losing it in favor of a deeper elaboration was too big and could have betrayed the initial purpose.
In "Vivid Colour" we were really pushed to investigate a particular moment of astonishment, right before the advent of something; an instant of pureness in which you barely realize, but can't figure it all out. This state of mind is suggested by the beautiful artwork by Bruno Armeni."
