His Name Is Alive – Mouth By Mouth (Remastered)

His Name Is Alive’s final record on 4AD, Mouth By Mouth was the first where the band controlled all processes including mix- ing, saw a marked shift; their most diverse, yet accessible catalog entry. The project’s soaring growth over time allowed Defever to employ an extraordinarily adventurous approach to the record’s sound and vision, indulging his love for all kinds of music, be it tastes of looped dub, sugar-sweet 1960s pop, distortion-laden dream-gaze, evocative alt-noise or strummy folk. Embracing the surreal and turning their experimentalism up a notch and with Defever’s studio skills truly blossoming, many see this as a high point for the band.
