Description:
Three years on from his last album, the Gold selling album A New Day At Midnight, David Gray presents Life In Slow Motion, recorded between autumn 2003 and spring 2005.
After eight years of touring and recording his three previous albums, 1998s White Ladder (6 million worldwide sales) established David as one of the UK's leading artists both at home and overseas.
In a break with prior tradition Life In Slow Motion is the first of David's albums to be recorded in a 'full scale' studio environment as opposed to the "bedroom" sized facilities favoured in the past. This increased physical space is matched by an evolution in David's musical aspirations. Life In Slow Motion is the first of his recent albums on which David and his group have been abetted by an outside producer, Marius De Vries (Rufus Wainwright, David Bowie, Madonna, U2).
Gray's "gift from God" voice, passionate delivery and melancholy pop-folk songs can make even the unknown sound enchanting. The first single, 'The One I Love', is a beautiful song about bleeding to death The lyrics are about someone lying in a pool of their own blood, the last thought of some guy who's just been shot.
Other worthy new tracks included the Welsh-named Nos De Caraid (roughly translated: Goodnight Sweetheart), the title track, Hospital Food, Alibi, and Ain't No Love.
Lyrically, David counts the songs on Life In Slow Motion as his best work. The album is the deceptively consummate product of two years of near-constant evolution, described by David as "the tip of an iceberg" of new material generated along the way.
