about

The Shining Levels return with a full-length album inspired by the award-winning novel The Silence of the Girls by international bestselling author, Pat Barker.

In the novel, Pat Barker retells the events of Homer’s ‘The Iliad’, reframing the story using the voices of the women who, following the slaughter of their husbands and sons, were awarded as trophies to Achilles’ Greek army.

Taking organic, folk roots as their influence, The Shining Levels add shades of psychedelia, ambience and electronica along with vintage synths and vocal harmony to create an auditory soup with a classic feel.
