|
1. (4:44) "The Last March" Ethereal post-rock. Prominent, 'marching' drumline. Crescendos into dramatic guitar chord progressions. 2. (4:30) "Calistoga" Angry, jarring compared to 1. Could be a solid hard rock track, it's not quite there. 3. (5:10) "Reverse World" Soft piano recieves cascading layers of accompaniment. 4. (4:03) "Transmissions" Electronic filters give synths a satisfying flutter. 5. (4:12) "Weightless" Staticy, droning synth with soft instrumental accompaniment. 6. (3:31) "Exit Dream" Male vox (hard to hear vocals over guitar), summery piece. 7.**(4:07) "Signal Rays" Fast beats and solid bass fill this musical sandwich with flavor. 8.**(3:47) "Autumn Song" Desolate soundscape slowly populated with slow, strumming melody. 9. (4:13) "Spiral Code" Standard electronica. Fast pace with driving drums. 10. (4:55) "Strange Steps" Zoned-out vocals on expansive backing. 8 is better. 11. (4:45) "Red Moon Lagoon" 10 but with more hard rock elements. Distorted, loud guitar. 12.*(5:08) "Light Years from Home" Ties the package together with string taken from 1. Great finisher. | ||
