Simon Booth So happy to see a new Auburn Lull album after all these years. It's short but vital, picking up seamlessly where Begin Civil Twilight left off but demonstrating evolution and originality. Every song adds something new to their canon. Of the many bands who count Slowdive as ancestors, Auburn Lull are probably the only one keeping the spirit of Pygmalion alive - and perhaps also latter period Talk Talk. Hope this marks the start of a fertile spell for the band! Favorite track: Silo.

about

Reclusive midwesterners return from dormancy with nine stunning, elegantly sparse tracks that showcase the band at its most focused, melodic, and mysterious.

While distinctly sounding like Auburn Lull, Hypha veers into uncharted territory, delivering surprises at every turn. The hallmark cavernous guitars and vast, slow-motion expanses, though still present, are reigned in, restrained, and paired with a newfound sense of minimalism and broader palette of sounds, textures, and shapes. There's remnants of vintage electronic music, as well as the expansive bliss of Slowdive and the rural psychedelia of the Michigan ambient-scene the band grew out of in the mid-1990s – but the band has slowly, but surely, paved their own path, and Hypha is the most unique sounding record in their catalog. For a nostalgic shoegaze retro fix, look elsewhere.

While the band have existed for more than 20 years, they've always remained a well kept secret to the wider indie community. However, mention the name Auburn Lull to ambient or shoegaze aficionados and you'll see their eyes widen with profound reverence. Hypha is a brilliant example of why the band's rich textures and precise compositions are adored by so many. And they surely have been missed.

-Auburn Lull have made music fine enough to die to, and I don't think I alone admire their ability to bring heaven to the earth. -Pitchfork

-discerning ears will find that Auburn Lull's rich tapestry is as dangerously hypnotic and transporting as it is soothing. -Tiny Mix Tapes
