avid and Jade began recording the Liquid Gold album two years ago after the birth of their twin baby boys. Neter write, record and produce all of their own music in their home studio.
“A Custom of Youth” from Liverpool feature on some of the tracks on this album and their new vocalist Jae. The first EP Love is a Gift tells the story of the coming together of Neter and this album is a memoir or “Living Liturgy” of the life of Neter so far. Inspired by influences like Black Submarine, Noel Gallagher, and the Imagine Dragons the band produce soaring melodic tunes that ring in your ears a long time after hearing them.
The single “Echo” due for release at the same time as the album is an anthemic movie soundtrack piece. Next year the band hope to move into production of music for film and TV.
There are lots of different genres over the course of the album so that there is something for everyone. “Living liturgy” is a piano driven ballad, whereas “I See You” is almost a dark dance track, the “Siren” is pure pop, and “Silver Sun” is a bit gospel in parts.
The piano hook line from “The Siren” came about while Jade was sitting at the piano bouncing Charlie on her knee. David started off with some electronic samples and they built the song around the piano layering instruments and vocals together. Lyrics usually start out as poetry which then get edited into verses and choruses.
“Action of Love” is otherwise known as the Flimby blues by the band and you will know why when you hear it.
Because of circumstances its difficult for them to get out and play the live circuit so Neter have opted for the multi media route for now, concentrating on getting airplay on the radio and producing Music Videos. The landscape of the music scene has changed over the years, we are in an age now where technology has put Artists in a much better situation to be able promote and distribute their own music. Neter chose the Winter Solstice to release the album as it is symbolic when darkness is at its peak and light begin to emerge.
Over the two years since beginning the recording of Liquid Gold Neter have had a definite shift from the traditional “band” archetype into recording experimental music which has opened up new vistas for their creativity. Next year they have very special guests lined up who will be working with them, to be announced at a later date.
Liquid Gold was released on the 21st of December 2015 on iTunes
