Motionless, the third album by Los Angeles-based Cold Showers, wieldsthe band's signaturesoundknown to fans, and becomes moresophisticated in style and arrangement than their previous works.Traversingthe realm of synth-laced post punk expertly for close to a decade, Motionless is a process-based album that reaches into the bands collective quiver, melding their familiar anthem infused post-punk and lush, grand pop influences.

Recorded in their own studio with band member Chris King at the production helm, each selection onthe album sounds like a line drawing that quickly becomes a technicolor collage of crashing shoegazed reverberation.

Compared toMatter of Choice, the additions of arpeggiated electronics and string arrangements adds a new depth tothe band's already dense allegories. Shine and Faith stand on their own as heavy-hearted melodies that leave a classic impression after only one listen. The bands cover of Sandy Rogers 80s ballad Black Sidewalk (only available on the LP & CD) offers proof-of-concept, never fully comfortable with their formula and challenging themselves as to what defines an amazing song. Measured Man and Dismiss have Cold Showers orbiting in the palpitations of early Factory Records and present each spin with tactical layering, rather than flooding the board.

With an overarching narrative of quiet control, Motionless allows Cold Showers to highlight their writing strengths with liquid ideation. No matter what situation the band finds themselves in, every song is given an individualized treatment while building a larger story. Featuring exclusive artwork by Los Angeles artist Robbie Simon.
