Their sixth full-length record, here they dives into recollections and past desires while looking forward in a wash of soundwaves pointing towards a blinding future. Their first release since the Covid pandemic began, offering 40 minutes of goth- laced progressive soundscapes. The new collection was previewed by two solid tasters– lead track [**‘Alarms Stop Ringing’**](https://youtu.be/W4IMOurpTbk) and the title track[** ‘Loveblind’**](https://youtu.be/k97f0Ulfo6M). Produced by[** Ryan Policky**](http://cargocollective.com/latenightweeknight) and recorded over 10 months in the Barnum suburb of Denver, Colorado, this album features immense synth layers, the band’s signature guitar and symphonic vocals. “This ‘Loveblind’ album is an introspective view of things building all the way up, then crashing back down – like relationships that try to rekindle, only to find that the original reason for the failure has grown even stronger. The songs and driving energy behind each represents rare moments of true passion and also those of complete devastation. Even in perceived time of feeling, things couldn’t get any better, a finality lies waiting behind the next corner,” says **Ryan Policky**. a shoreline dream - "loveblind" [⌊a shoreline dream - "loveblind"⌉⌊a shoreline dream - "loveblind& quot;⌉ Watch this video on YouTube In 2020, A Shoreline Dream released their [**‘Melting’ album**](https://ashorelinedream.bandcamp.com/album/melting)( 2020), the latest in a series of critically acclaimed releases.

Their legacy is further rounded out thanks to collaborations with legends such as **Ulrich Schnauss, Mark Kramer** and** The Engineers** (for whom they created a remix for progressive label gods K-Scope). Also of note is the fact that the band also opened for **Chapterhouse** for their very final appearance. ![](https://i0.wp.com/redirect.haulix.com/8MlFBQ1oCyyW1CAEHDKUyn2d74hvz1c-yOXnsfGGQwE% 3D/PromoAccessory_968969.jpg?resize=363%2C242&ssl=1) **Photo by Allan Cutler** The pandemic has taken its toll on our mental well-being and the perception of money and power has blown previous years away. Dying to get back to the good times and moments of pure, unscathed lust, we long for new experiences to sweep us off our feet. ‘Loveblind’ reaches for that same energy, taking cues from previous A Shoreline Dream works, drawing from their progressive goth roots. Layers of moodiness, blissful explosions of rock and chugging tempo mix with the pain, love, hope and moments of near death experienced while creating the album itself. As of September 23, the ‘Loveblind’ LP is available everywhere online, including** [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/69mC9jCWu6aiRAvyjIk5es)**, **[Apple Music](https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/a-shoreline-dream/157640640)** and **Bandcamp**.
