Expanded “Sideways Forest” Single Out Digitally

For the first time ever, the 1996 ‘Sideways Forest Single’ is available digitally! This was the only CD-single ever released by Love Spirals Downwards, and while you can still find a few used copies of the CD online, it has been largely unavailable. In addition to the album mix from ‘Ever’, the ‘Quantum Remix’, and and b-side instrumental, “Amarillo,” this expanded reissue also features 2 bonus tracks: the recently unearthed “Acoustic Mix” made by Ryan in 1996 — PLUS a live version of the ‘Quantum Remix’ recorded at ProjektFest 1997. While the “Quantum Remix” was never released digitally, only on the original CD-single, neither of these bonus tracks have been previously released in ANY format, making this a very special release. The cover artwork has been recreated with a slight update using the original photo taken by Barbara Dowis. The ‘Sideways Forest EP” is also available on iTunes.

“Beautiful arrangements and heavenly vocals have always been at the heart of Love Spirals Downwards’ work, and the Sideways Forest EP is a great example of the band at their best.” RIKM

“Sideways Forest” lyrics:

Sky’s the same as it always was
Nothing we do
So hard to keep anything
When you’re expected toThis is the time when water stops
History dies with you
Like rings of trees in sideways forest
ForgettingLands change in the same ways
Like waves and words
Better not to watch at all
This changes everythingThis is the time when water stops
History died with you
Like rings of trees in sideways forest
Forgetting

 

This is the time when water stops
History died with you
Like rings of trees in sideways forest
Forgetting
