Description/Reviews
A promising debut album from a young Dutch quintet which should appeal to fans of fellow countrymen A Liquid Landscape.
After a slow start, the title track settles into an ambient, post rock groove around a great hook and some beautiful little guitar details. The energy builds nicely towards the climax, reminding me a little of Polish Progsters Believe in their more melancholic moments.
The Well is of a similar melancholic quality. Here, a clever second phase maintains the interest. Singer Jesse Biël had by now suggested more than a passing resemblance to Gazpacho's Jan-Henrik Ohme.
