Forever is a 1993 album by the British shoegaze band Cranes. Forever
continues the trend of the band's previous albums, revolving largely around
Alison Shaw's distinctive vocals. The album contains elements of shoegaze,
dream pop and gothic rock, and features the singles "Adrift" and "Jewel".
The album starts with hypnotizing acoustic guitar chords on the first track
"Everywhere". Songs like "Cloudless", "And Ever" and "Far Away" show the band
taking an extremely minimalist approach to their songwriting with sometimes
nothing more than a piano accompanying Alison's voice. The songs "Adrift" and
"Clear" are heavy post-punk rockers and "Jewel" is one of the brightest and
most colorful songs that Cranes have ever produced.
"Jewel" ended up being an underground hit in the U.K. and U.S., though thanks
to a somewhat transformed remix courtesy of longtime Cranes fan Robert Smith
(Forever takes its name from a The Cure rarity of the same title).
Forever turned out to be a favorite amongst fans and critics, it's a lost treasure
of early 90s dream pop, delivering unique and mesmerizingly beautiful music.
The hidden track "Shine Like Stars" is included on the LP.
2023 marks the 30th anniversary of Forever. Therefore, the album is available as
a 30th anniversary edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on crystal clear
vinyl and includes an insert. Also, the band will perform the complete album at
EartH in London on October 14.
