Fateful Entanglements: “In Every Way But One - EP” by Binding Blank Pages
“In Every Way But One - EP” by Binding Blank Pages
A debut EP titled “In Every Way But One,” featuring members with roots in Greece, the Netherlands, France, and the Czech Republic – welcome to Binding Blank Pages. The band’s 6-track work offers complex guitar layering, introspective lyrics, and dynamic sound escalations that harmonise in their brilliance.
The opener “Passersby” captivates with its evolutionary structure, while “Small Steps” finds a delicate balance between vehemence and playfulness. “Skies” invites a foray into the realms of New Romantic, carried by an ambiance that radiates an almost tangible romance. “Indigo Veil” leads back, prompts a brief pause, and lays the groundwork for “Again & Again” before the final title track “In Every Way But One” completes the work with a grand final chord.
Binding Blank Pages navigate with finesse through the fields of indie rock, skilfully incorporating elements of other musical genres. Fateful entanglements, introspective self-reflection, and the melancholy of lost affection do not remain in musical stagnation but unfold an EP that is far from content-empty pages and instead reveals a musical essence that captivates the listener. In summary: simply a magnificent debut.
