Text excerpt by Past Inside The Present:

"Since taking on the Slow Dancing Society mantle in 2006, Pacific Northwest-based Drew Sullivan has issued more than two dozen collections built from radiant analog synthesis, treated guitars, and an intuitive sense of texture. The Disappearing Collective, Vol. I (PITP, 2020) was an essential expression of reverberating beauty pulled from the darkness of an uncertain era, and six years on, The Disappearing Collective, Vol. II (PITP, 2026) expands on that theme with the wisdom and resolve that have emerged since. “It started with considering where I was in my life back then,” Sullivan notes, “and a desire to reimagine that peculiar headspace, to play in its world again with a different perspective.”

“I Never Will Forget Those Nights” opens the album with a pensive hum and swirling synths over snow-tire ambience, as subtle chord changes mimic shifts in wind direction across a dormant field. There is a particular kind of nocturnal comfort here, not entirely of this world, but familiar in its warmth and welcoming pull. “A Light in the Window at Home” rises from a mysterious howl beneath angelic drones, each element in complementary contrast to the other, while the rumbling bass of “Ephemeris” underscores subtle tonal explorations, smeared across a clock face whose second hand ticks patiently in the background. The quiet power of these pieces illustrates a mastery of world-building through nuanced arrangement and wordless storytelling, each with its own peaks, valleys, and blind corners.

About the album title’s origins, Sullivan cites a line by slow-folk artist Matthew Ryan, who sings, “The things we love will one day disappear / First slow, and then so quick”. This simple, cutting notion applies at the personal scale, as well as the cosmic, and describes perfectly the complicated dance of honoring loss through memory while remaining receptive to the joys of the present. As much as ever, the job of the artist is to return us to ourselves, to tilt our gaze upward and offer a hand on the shoulder amid tender desolation. [...]"
