Confess

America Canada gatefold vinyl with cd version twin shadow the creative moniker of george lewis jr releases his second album 'confess' on 4ad selfproduced and with mixing duties handled by michael h brauer bob dylan paul mccartney the followup to 2010's 'forget' finds lewis jr doing what he does best remembering and reinventing and fashioning a soundtrack which sounds refreshingly and distinctly modern george lewis jr seeks out the finer details using his second album to add more polish and shine to the arch synths of his debut the insistent 'five seconds' its first single sounds like it's been plucked from the triumphant prom scene of a longlost john hughes film while the boss police feel of run my heart manages to come across as both threatening and uplifting this isn't merely revivalism though 'you can call me' on starts out as an early90s rock hit but it quickly steps back into a driving rb beat before careering towards a noisy ambient finish lewis says 'confess' was inspired by a return to his motorbike having previously stopped riding following an accident it's certainly captures that exhilaration
