about

Nostalgia 'Aint What It Used To Be is the debut EP from Perth's 11-piece indie-orchestral pop outfit The Shallows. Pulling together a range of styles from rock (The Air) to funk (Seabreeze) and orchestral pop (Lullabye), Nostalgia... demonstrates why The Shallows are popular force on the Perth music scene.

"Blending the sensitivity of classical instrumentation and the sensibility of rock into something far greater than post-rock, this mixed bag of treats and curios works its magic over a suite of five tracks, encouraging listeners to happily sit mesmerized for 27 minutes of glimmering sonic twilight and translucently tingling ambi-organic pearly-dewdrops droppery." - Jennifer Peterson-Ward, Xpress

"This is an incredible EP that should be part of any music collection and you will kick yourself for not having gotten it sooner." - Tony Lendrum, The AU Review
