Bay Area’s Devereux Scales Blends Shoegaze And Dream Pop In New Release

Bay Area-based Devereux Scales has released “Drain to Live,” a ten-song collection that pays homage to legendary labels like 4AD and Creation Records. Featuring the dynamic guitar interplay of Matt Lavin and Jeremy Nunes, the album is a blend of driving rhythms, dreamy shoegaze, and moody dark wave. Recorded at Oakland’s Tiny Telephone Recording, the lyrics grapple with cynicism, doubt, and an uncertain future. Backed by a full band and shimmering synthesizers, “Drain to Live” is a record that feels both anthemic and introspective, perfectly grounding its classic influences in a modern, atmospheric sound.
