With three singles over the last year, Original Past Life have been edging closer and closer to the release of The Times Of Ceylon, their debut album. A trio comprising members of post-rockers Radarmaker and avant-jazzists Gran Masa, OPL strike an expressive balance between the warm minimalism similar to what you might find on a Yo La Tengo or Tortoise record and twitchy rock improv ala latter-day Tarentel and post-punk underdogs This Heat, which positions itself perfectly within hellosQuare's diverse yet intriguing back catalogue.
Includes unlimited streaming of The Times Of Ceylon

Discovered while on Bandcamp safari. Agreeable shades of krautrock and 90s IDM and beautifully measured. This is the kind of release that encourages me to spend way too much time going down the Bandcamp rabbit hole. AJ.
Free-flowing, loosely structured songs that borrow lightly from jazz and ambient but expand in directions all their own. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 7, 2023
