Unbelievable Truth’s “From This Height” Brings Artful Alt-Rock Back to Life

“Unbelievable Truth’s ‘From This Height’ proves that honest, artistic rock never really went away, it was just waiting for the right moment to soar again.”

There’s something personally touching when a band manages to sound exactly like the music you’ve been missing. Unbelievable Truth’s “From This Height,” a track originally exclusive to the Japanese release of “Almost Here,” captures that feeling perfectly while adding new depth in its live incarnation.

Recorded across two special shows at Oxford’s Jericho Tavern and London’s Bush Hall, this performance features the original lineup of Andy Yorke (vocals, guitar), Jason Moulster (bass) and Nigel Powell (drums), joined by live members Jim Crosskey (guitar) and Richard Payne (keyboards). The track balances between intimate art-rock moments and energetic club-rock heights, carrying both the spirit of ’90s Brit alt-rock and a contemporary alternative edge.

The song comes from the upcoming live album celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Almost Here,” which sold out its hometown show at the iconic Jericho Tavern in just five minutes. That enthusiasm makes sense – there’s something in Unbelievable Truth’s combination of poetic vocals, resonant keyboards, and dynamic instrumentation that still connects deeply with listeners.

For those who’ve been waiting for honest, artful rock to make its return, this Oxford three-piece shows how it’s done. The band is set to follow this release with a new studio album in 2025.
