Third release from “drone-metal-art-folk” artist. Lovely, haunting
Enya-esque vocals.
No FCC violations detected.
*= favorite cuts
1 – (3:20) Feral Love.* Moody & spare, eerie vocals, electronica backing.
2 – (3:34) We Hit a Wall.* Dark, slow tempo, guitar reverb, very nice.
3 – (4:58) House of Metal. Slow, mysterious & sexy vocals, droning sounds.
4 – (3:50) The Warden.* Up-tempo, delicate & inviting vocals, nicely performed.
5 – (2:35) Destruction Makes the World Burn Brighter.* Mid-tempo metal,
slashing guitar, drowsy vocals.
6 – (5:34) Sick.* Sweeping, orchestral backing, then spare vocal passage. Plaintive.
7 – (3:57) Kings. Droning background, dark & intense.
8 – (5:02) Reins.* Plodding, then shifts to up-tempo, beautiful & strange.
9 – (4:30) Ancestors, the Ancients. Slow meditation, soulful & haunting.
10 – (5:47) They’ll Clap When You’re Gone.* Dark & moody, Enya-like.
11 – (8:25) The Waves Have Come.* Soft intro, builds in urgency, ends gently.
12 – (2:36) Lone.* Majestic guitar passages, another haunting track.
