"A lovely artwork by Cierra G Rowe of two interstellar beings kissing or hugging is used for the latest release by +DOG+, who is, of course, is Steve Davis, the label dude of Love Earth Music. These days, most of his releases get sent to me to review, so I can also compare or find links with earlier stuff I reviewed. And I probably say the same thing every time: That's not a punishment of any kind, as I like his approach to sounds and composition. His Discogs page is a bit empty as not all releases are on there, nor are all of the Love Earth Music releases. And as with the previously reviewed Compactor, I suppose a bit of mystery should be there.
"To Share Forever With You" has many titles that in some way relate to relationships and maybe even pregnancy or the end of either of those. "Nothing Loved Is Ever Lost", "His Eyes, Her Laughter", "Keep Living & Loving", "A Responsibility To Wonder" and "Angel Wings". It's obviously a conceptual approach to the subject, but it remains a mystery to the subjects. It can be all made up; it could have happened to Steve or someone nearby. But as information about most L.E.M. releases is scarce, I will stick to what I hear, and that is some loud music. Maybe even a bit louder than I've heard in his recent releases. The cutup noises are pushed towards the front of the audio-image, and several tracks have (audible yet incomprehensible) vocals. With these vocals, they get a bit of a power electronics feel as it's less 'screamy' than what one normally hears in harsh noise.
The tracks on this release can roughly be divided into two directions. One part seems to be recorded fully with sounds and noises in a collage kind of setting, and the other is a combination of generated electronics with what appears to be live drumming - albeit not all too coherent and not always recognizable as such. My favourite track is "Everybody Has A Light" because this one has a bit of everything."-BW, Vital Weekly
