Musical tear-jerker. creating tear waterfalls and sobbing under a blanket. Beautiful and sad, this is WhyOceans from the exotic Macao. "Inmost Dens Of Emilie" is their second album, an album that is complex, well written and basically complete. Not a surprise as the band plays together for over 10 years now.
Already the violin based intro draws attention of the trembling heart. But wait until the musicians proceed to the main dishes! The album tells six different stories and this is where our imagination is supposed to do its job. The stories have to be sad and beautiful, two of them are about the Emilie from the album's title, the rest can be, why not, about us. The stories are told by strings and keys and, obviously, the whole post-rock spectre of instruments. This is the music that is usually called cinematic and we should agree with that claim without any doubt.
An interesting thing is the name of the band's bass player, Gabriel Stańczyk. I wonder what's the story of this Polish-like name in the distant Macao.
"Inmost Dens Of Emilie" is available for 6 USD.
