Mattima

Aes as our great observer poet, reminding all of us to pause, to witness beauty in the mundane, whether that is a chimney full of birds, black plums or the nostalgic memory of someone giving you a piece of art to love, without no other motive than of appreciation. Appreciation for the little moments.

Graveyards, suicidal motorcyclists, a donut shop refuge for lost men, near deaths, animal deaths, and a steadfast refusal to eat your beans, yep this is Aes' darkest album.

Life affirming, soul healing, and heart restructuring. Incredible indie anthems for broken youths and wayward loners. A lengthy album but after a listen you'll be aching to listen to those opening piano notes once again.

Ok debut, Magnolia is a great tune but man, this album is worth a listen just to acknowledge the massive leap forward in quality 'Go Farther in Lightness' was.
