Floodlights - Painting of My Time (Blue Splatter Coloured Vinyl)

Painting of My Time encapsulates the sonic and personal progression of the group. An album consistent in its signature, evocative lyricism. A refinement and push responding to a raft of new experiences in an ever changing world. It’s a journey of observations, reshaping views and identity, elaborating on themes of personal turbulence, self exploration, and the Australian landscape as a form of escapism. Taking their form from scrawled poetic prose, Floodlights’ lyrics are honest. Words resonating out from humble beginnings, and speaking to the memories of those that relate. Lyricists, Ashlee Kehoe, and Louis Parsons, write expressively and with purpose. Words mature into melodies, and grow into songs that encapsulate a feeling. Stories that can’t be spoken without the allure the sum of each of its parts offer. “One of the greatest joys of writing is harnessing the transition from a lyrical idea, to a fully formed composition that reflects the feelings you had when you wrote the lyrics”, says Kehoe.

Painting of My Time marks a natural departure and arrival. An evolution as a group, and as individuals, fuelled by life’s singular and shared experience. A response to questions asked over time, written down, and yelled with the conviction of honesty.
