Peter Harrison, Memory And Remedy. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 7/10

Memory can be an alien feeling, a series of synaptic misfires in which what you remember, perhaps selectively, is not the whole story; the blanks are filled into your advantage and the medicine of regret taken half-heartedly and with a grimace.

Memory can also be a cathartic beast, especially when used as an artistic expression in music, poetry, literature or art; it can be useful to in the endeavour of creation and is far more productive to the soul than the initial outburst of anger that comes from certain situations. The sombre and sober reflection casting its eye over the words, the stroke of paintbrush or the shrewd addition to a multitude of musical notes are memory enhanced and in Peter Harrison’s debut E.P., Memory and Remedy, recall and recollection have a new champion in which to listen to and admire.
