Geoghegan Jackson, Flatlands Rising. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

A new year should always bring with it the twin senses of optimism and hope, whether hand in hand and with angelic smiling faces, cool enough to disarm the concerns of all who approach it initially with caution or in hessian sacks to stop them fighting over who gets to pull the wool over the eyes of the population first; the latter seems to come round all too frequently, flattering to deceive and lulling you into the false sense of security before robbing you blind of faith and wonder. Then there is the former, the place where the view from Flatlands Rising is charming and honest, sincere and welcome; it is a position in which optimism and hope thrive and live carefree.

There is always time for the harmony and the beauty of lyrical aspiration to join forces in this world, when they do there is a certain potency of achievement that comes through in any piece of art that is laid bare for the audience to hear, see and immerse themselves into.

Bank Holidays were not meant for the appearance of a job’s list being presented into the hand of the Human Being, nor were they the opportune moment into which to get frustrated in a 17 mile tail back on Britain’s overstretched motorway system just to catch a glimpse of a wave and the slowly disappearing sensation of another summer gone in the blink of a British eye. What they were made for surely is the chance to listen to local music that might not have been taken in before and to spend time relishing a whole afternoon of it in your own city and away from the nights when the big band decide to play in the biggest venue around.
