The fifth album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a trio with a lineup of drums, percussion, guitars, synths and vocals.
This album is, as the cover art-work alludes to, a weird one. I will explain...
This band is a side project of Drifting Sun whose albums I have reviewed in # 1, # 2 and this edition of this blog. That includes their album Veil which was released to very positive reviews everywhere back in March 2024.
This trio then took the lyrics from Veil and simply wrote new music, a new score, to these lyrics. Hence this thirty-seven minutes long album.
Weird and slightly wonderful.
The music is off course pretty similar to what Drifting Sun has been giving us in the last decade. That means neo-prog.
The difference here is that the music on this album is a bit darker, has a coupe of unnerving samples and is more art-rock influenced.
The music is also melodic and very well crafted. Is this a better album than Veil ? In my view.... yes.
This is also a name-your-price Bandcamp album and one you should all get.
This is indeed a very good album and one of the biggest surprises from last year.
3.5 points
