Skyer, with its hazy miasma of synthesizers, saxophones, and snippets of movie dialogue, is an album to get lost within.
With Skyer, the Swedish trio have created their own dreamlike gossamer world where the exaltation to “take me to the clouds above” is almost realised.
When the snow starts to fall this winter and I’m craving the sound of waves and the heat of the sun, I’ll be pulling this out to get me through the cold nights.
If you're looking for something gnarly, Skyer is not it—these are sounds for sentimental souls.
Skyer sounds a bit like those TV adverts where they can't afford/can't get Beach House or Sigur Ros songs, so they hire someone to write something that sounds a bit like them.
This is the stuff you hear in dreams or in a nostalgic slideshow of your past memories like driving down an empty highway at night with a couple of your best friends
