Six years &#8211; and six releases &#8211; into their journey, the band have always stayed humble, honest and, more than anything, emotionally invested in the art that they create. With <i>\u2018Be Water&rsquo;<\/i>, their second full-length, the band seem to be in the form of their life, yet will being so open in their approach pay off once more? You better believe it does, but just a quick tip. Have some tissues handy, this could hit you hard.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest part of <i>\u2018Be Water&rsquo;<\/i> is how much <b>The Tidal Sleep<\/b> have invested themselves into the songs. Each note, each word, each second of crushing post-hardcore exists for a reason. The band have made sure they have left nothing behind when crafting these slabs of affecting noise and that makes it even more brilliant.<\/p>\n<p> <!-- more --><\/p>\n<p>The quivering pace of the tear-stained <i>\u2018Spills&rsquo;<\/i> clashes brilliantly against the heartbreaking atmosphere of the gut-punching <i>\u2018Hearses&rsquo;<\/i> before the haunting sadness of closer <i>\u2018Footsteps&rsquo;<\/i> brings everything crashing in to a desolating point. Not many bands have the gall or bravery to plunge as vigorously into the depths of desperation as <b>The Tidal Sleep<\/b> do, but that extra layer of intensity sees the band stand leagues above their peers while also exorcising demons on a completely different level. <\/p>\n<p>What <b>The Tidal Sleep<\/b> have created is an emotional roller-coaster of the highest quality. Twisting and turning between utter devastation and travesty, this is an album built on a foundation of sleepless nights and cold sweats. Listening to this will result in the hairs on the back of your neck being permanently on end.
