Toma - 'As We Fall Into the Static Our Hearts Sing'
As a fellow Wise Owler i downloaded this on the very day of release. Beautifully layered, captivating and incredibly evocative. This album has so many stand out tracks, so I will just start from the beginning: "Sins of a Solar Empire" progresses in a way that you would expect from the biggest names in the genre. "This Day" is a triumphant tale of freedom that reaches epic conclusions in a sea of distortion and melody. "This is the End of Everything", a serene and beautiful piano piece narrated with evocative vocals leads into what is arguably the albums best track "Terrorforming". A beautiful down-tempo melody dominates "Fallback Lighthorsemen" and my mind for quite some time after hearing it. "In Perfect Harmony" closes the album in like-minded fashion with a great string section. This is the best album I've heard this year.
Toma – a criminally underrated musician.
