\"On their sophomore album - aptly named \"II\" - Shem continue their research mission into the deep field of sonic improvisations, following up \"The Hill AC\" with a 40 minute journey into cosmic abysses, across obscured nightscapes and into the vastness of space.
Keeping up the momentum with a constant motorik groove, Shem explore both moments of atmospheric calmth and distorted maelstroms of psychedelic bliss, offering the listener a gateway to descend into their realm of musical experimentations once again.
\"II\" displays the next step in a continuous creative process, and we hope you enjoy delving into these soundscapes as much as we enjoyed creating them!\"
EP Notes:
\"This digital EP contains the extended version of \"Night\", to be featured on our upcoming second album which will be released by Clostridium Records in early 2021. It also contains a collage of medleys that didn't make the final cut.
PLEASE NOTE: Night (extended) is also part of the \"Psych Against Cancer Vol. II\" benefit compilation. Please consider heading over to psychlovers.bandcamp.com/album/psych-against-cancer-vol-2-part-2 and support the cause. All proceeds will be donated to Macmillian Cancer Support.\"
