Part of the double A-side single (w/ Burn In The City) and first new music to be taken from Slow Riot's forthcoming debut album.
"Ireland's Slow Riot are a potent live force. Intense indie rock with lashings of post-punk, the band's taut, concise songwriting packs a real punch.
With each show seeming to take them further and further, the group recently welcomed second guitarist Liam O’Connor." Clash
“Liam came to us with the chord progressions and guitar melody of ‘Voyeur’. I liked the contrast between the spectral, somewhat eerie verse parts and the melodic, hopeful chorus. Lyrically I wanted to convey this disparity between hope and desperation and found a similarity in, what can be, the voyeuristic nature of romance today.” Niall, Slow Riot
lyrics
He knows your secrets
He knows the truth
In convalescence
Been dreaming about you
He’ll take you places
A million miles away
Where no one knows yet
Been dreaming of the day
I know you want heartache
I’ve been thinking about
All of the simple sounds
Oh love, you’re departing
I’ve been thinking about
All of those symphonic sounds
He knows your secrets
He knows the truth
And learned the lessons
Dreaming about you
He’s got it mapped out
Where to hide the frame
All of the time spent
Dreaming of the day
I know you want heartache
I’ve been thinking about
All of the simple sounds
Oh love, you’re departing
I’ve been thinking about
All of those symphonic sounds
I know your secrets
I know the truth
In convalescence
I’ve been dreaming about you
I know you want heartache
I’ve been thinking about
All of the simple sounds
Oh love, you’re departing
I’ve been thinking about
All of those symphonic sounds

Deliciously dark alt-folk from SLAF label mate. The video director of our Absent Dreams & Pink December videos also shot the clips for Channel D's Derelict & Panic. Check them out. Slow Riot
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
this album made me feel nostalgic for memories that never existed😭 the name of the album compliments the sound of the album very well. keep up the great work.

"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
