Hope the Flower - Sonorous Faith Pt. 1 (2020) EN

Thailand's Hope the Flower is a collective that assembles a small troop of musicians resulting in an exceptionally spacious and multidimensional music. The band just released their third album called Sonorous Faith Pt. 1.

The release is meant to be delivered in two parts, this is the first one in which the band decided to break a mold and show "a more aggressive and heavier sound than what we have done in the previous album". Indeed, there's a lot of guitars that gain the whole attention together with the good, solid noise (as in the thrilling Sentinel), although every moment has a huge saturation of melancholy too.

Another thing is that the band's strength is diversification of the sound. Interlude I breaks the guitar's cacophony with violins and glockenspiel already. But it's best audible in Shout Out for the Sea, in which both strings and trumpets and keys work fantastically with the guitars, as well as in the album's finish in Rewind Nature. I think I'd rather have more of this in the whole album but it seems that for this, I need to wait for the second part of the release.

Sonorous Faith Pt. 1 costs 9 USD.
