Feels Like Heaven

This might be an early contender for Record of the Year. Feels Like Heaven / Scheme Records cleverly released Within Dreams on January 1, 2026. Of course, the way things go with current releases, it took me a while until I actually got a copy, but hey, it was well worth the wait. If you like current bands like Drug Church or Fiddlehead and/or late 80s Dichord stuff, you won‘t get disappointed. This is really, really good. 

Unknowingly, the Band Scores major bonus points with the cover. When I was a kid, I had a few records with fairy tales and modern classic children stories that I listened to a bunch. The one outlier record I had was a radio play based on true events, detailing the first ascent of Nanga Parbat, one of the highest mountains in the world. The radio play was much more dramatic than any other records I had, but I loved it. The cover featured a similar image to the one on the cover of Within Dreams, and now I sort of want to listen to that radio play again.
