It's been too long not seeing Christoffer Franzén on my blog. Two years ago his The Great Wide Open brought tons of ethereal post-rock vibes to my world and to this website, and now we can admire the next album created under the moniker of Lights & Motion, one entitled The World I Remember.
As always, the weight of his certified super airy post-rock music is limitless. There's few people who can create post-rock music and at the same time fill it with so much of the ethereal, Nordic atmosphere that is both up-lifting and hopeful, melancholic and beautiful. The key to this music is creating post-rock, very much guitar-filled music with the neoclassical sensibility (and neoclassical instruments as well). This, together with a lot of airy backing vocals, brings to life the grand, a bit bombastic and very satisfying soundscape.
Having said that, Franzén can easily change the mood to something heavier, more post-rock-like in the track aptly called Panic Attack but it is still swiftly balanced by The First Day's piano keys and the whole neoclassical might. Simply beautiful.
