Review by Gary Hill
There is a modern school of music that features dreamy textures, subdued female vocals and moody vibes. This fits into that genre. It is a solid entry in the field, but I am beginning to find that sound a little clichéd by now. It is somewhat limited in scope as a musical style, and it seems pretty hard to stand out amidst the crowd. Additionally, as this disc does at points, there is a tendency toward it sounding samey within the same release. Still, this is entertaining and intriguing. If this leaned a little more heavily on the artsy side I would have probably landed it under progressive rock under the art rock concept. As it is, there are definitely tendencies in that direction.
This review is available in book (paperback and hardcover) form in Music Street Journal: 2021 Volume 4. More information and purchase links can be found at: garyhillauthor.com/Music-Street-Journal-2021.
