Editor's review
Dream-pop astronaut Lewis Shaw sows his ambient oats as the Steam Age. His sonic explorations are whispery without being mopey. The layers of post rock have been peeled back to reveal a mellow, beautiful center.
Biography
Born in a small dock town long since past its prime on the south coast of England which sustained heavy bomb damage during world war II and now mainly consists of council estates and sad dilapidated shopping precincts.
Formed in another small seaside town along the south coast.
It had been going on a while under various guises but was solidified proper in the year of our lord, amen 2004.
The Steam Age is the sole work of Lewis Shaw.
The Steam Age is music of an acoustic/electronic nature.
Repitious, picked guitar lines, staticy, glitchy electronics & hushed, low vocals make up mostly sad but hopeful little stories.
