Experimental lo-fi recorded in a bedroom, inspired by both The Beatles and Sigur Rós. Sounds good? It is. Wolves Asleep, one man project from Tennessee, rich in melancholy and modest, sad catchiness.
"angel's crossing" is an acoustic shoegaze in which the wall of electric guitars is replaced by a delicate cardboard box wall of acoustic guitar. And it is a background for airy vocals having a lot, a lot lot, in common with Simon Phipps of Engineers. The whole thing sounds las if it was one gloomy song with amazing atmosphere triggering a massive sadness within the audience. For instance, there is a lot about dead friend who is either found in water (“in the lake”) or on a bedroom floor (“wash away”). If it’s not a metaphor of loss and loneliness then I don’t know what is.
The album is absorbing from the first to the very last sound. A real crossing angel.
"angel's crossing" costs 7 USD.
