Tears Run Rings (band)
Tears Run Rings is an American shoegaze band consisting of singer/bassist Laura Watling, singer/guitarist Matthew Bice, guitarist Ed Mazzucco, guitarist Tim Morris, and drummer Dwayne Palasek.[1] They have released three albums.[2] HistoryEd Mazzucco, Laura Watling, Tim Morris, and Dwayne Palasek have been collaborating various incarnations since the mid-90s.[3] In 2007 they released their first EP as Tears Run Rings called "A Question and an Answer".[4] They later teamed up with Matthew Bice of Shelflife Records[5] to produce a full-length album entitled Always, Sometimes, Seldom, Never,[6] which was released on Florida's Clairecords in April 2008.[7] The album was well-reviewed (4/5 stars) and drew strong comparisons to shoegaze bands of 20 years earlier: "may be a dead ringer for Slowdive, right down to their torrents of cascading, distorted, and delayed guitars and ubiquitous male-female cooing, with slight seasonings of Moose, Chapterhouse, and Kitchens of Distinction".[8] Their second album entitled Distance was released in 2010.[9] A third album was released in 2016, entitled In Surges.[10] In December 2016, American webzine Somewherecold ranked In Surges No. 8 on their Somewherecold Awards 2016 list.[11] In 2018, Tears Run Rings contributed an exclusive song to the Somewherecold Records Various Artists compilation Resistance: In Support of the Southern Poverty Law Center.[12] References
