Her Vanished Grace's new recording BLUE (2009) is dark urgent pop singed with white noise. HVG has crafted a sweetly menlacholic tableau of vivid memories with lush vocals and simmering tension. With Nance and Charlie’s guitar textures veering from candy colored swirl to vintage ‘60s bite and Billy and Maria's hard hitting and melodic rhythm section propelling the music, this is the blend of old and new that the band has been striving for. Shiny moonlit jangle is combined with vast oceanic landscapes to create a unique and powerful sound. The bracing dream pop of HVG is an explosive modern mix of '80s new wave and '90s shoegaze.
