April Album Swap #9

This albums just gorgeous. Some of the most atmospheric and emotional singer-songwriter I’ve ever heard. The lyrics are brimming with loss and tragedy. The instrumentals are slow and quiet but match the vocals perfectly. The vocals on here are also fucking amazing be it the lead vocals or the backing vocals. I love it all. If I did have to bring up a criticism I had it would definitely be the lack of consistency towards the middle of the record however that is well made up for by the front and back halves which are both incredible. Really really great album I’ll probably check out more from the some time.
