Henry Bateman, A Ghost Inside. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

It is not beyond the realms of thought that we can look upon ourselves at this time as the children of fallen expectation, the high hopes we cherished, the plans we made, are being unravelled by A Ghost Inside the machine, and it is the spectre of our misdeeds, our failures to act in a responsible manner towards the place we call home, the continual cycle of abuse we visit from one generation to the next; it is no wonder that in the end the ghosts come back to haunt us and urge us to listen more and speak less.

Henry Bateman, Seinfeld Street. Single Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

An anthem for the lonely, at any other time in history it would have sounded as if the narrative had come of the pages of one of the great American novels, the protagonist of the piece finding their way through the wilderness to great acclaim, and which stood for an allegory of the way the nation had come through its own trials and tribulations. Yet like so many unique experiences during a time that we dared to believe would never be, it is a fitting reminder of the sheer agony and pain, the dashed hope, and the seizing of beauty in even a drop of rain, that is exemplified by Henry Bateman in his new single, Seinfeld Street.
