if there is one word to describe this album, it is 'beautiful'. this album is the pinnace of beauty, with ichiko's hauntingly pretty voice and the smooth strings of the orchestra, everything comes together to create a truly incredibly special experience.
this album capture THAT feeling. there are no words to describe THAT feeling, but this is it.
a masterpiece of songwriting, complemented by fantastic instrumentals and incredible drumming. this album is, above all, harrowing. every song hits hard in a different way, and it never lets up. the storytelling is awesome and terrifying. i was worried from the singing on the first song, but the album settles into itself and lonnie's voice fits it perfectly. my aoty up to this point.
