about

‘Living is a Myth’ is an incredible album, exploring symptoms of society through its overlapping patterns of ideas and music. Always inventive, clatter-some drumbeats drive the songs ever onwards, whilst the bass plunges through the fantastical worlds emerging from the woozy pools of formidable keyboard tone. RMA see themselves as agents, pointing out phenomenon and responding to it. This is conducted largely through the band’s contagious approach to song. Melody and reiteration are at the forefront, with Dorrer’s wordplay and sublime delivery racing through the songs with effortless style. Ridgway and Theobald also contribute stunning vocals, often unpinning the songs with surreal refrains and caustic angles. Moving onto the topics covered on the album, Ravioli Me Away have mutual interests in identity, politics, human relationships, love, gender, class and current affairs, and use their songs as a means to explore, debate and express such interests, using metaphor, clichéd pop references and repetition.

“I’m nostalgic for now, I travelled far ahead, I’m looking back with great affection – at this moment” sing RMA on the album’s title track. It’s hard to imagine a lyric that more perfectly encapsulates what RMA are all about. Ravioli Me Away provide the commentary to our internal narrative as we edge through life from one nostalgic moment to the next. They witness, comment and thus help us identify the means by which we must escape ourselves. - Chris Tipton (Upset the Rhythm)

about

Ravioli Me Away UK

Ravioli Me Away’s high energy, genre-bending and delusional jazzy-post-pop-punk-hip-funk sound with stylistically erratic motifs span all-known past, present and future human cultures and sub-cultures. This is social realism soaked through with a heady dose of fantasy, idiosyncratic poetics, keyboard flurries and vocal vicissitudes. Ravioli Me Away are Sian Dorrer, Rosie Ridgway & Alice Theobald. ... more
