Well what do ya know. Hammock is
back with another great release.
Hammock are a band who completely surround the listener
with sound.
I could only imagine how large they would sound in
concert. There is
a nice uncomplicated feel to their music. Even though
it's quite
complex. A lot of bands could really benefit from
learning that trick
from these guys. The listening of their music is an
experience
that is truly one that you will never regret. The
guitar lines and
effects are there as usual. But somehow they managed to
top their
last release Kenotic. Which was something I didn't
think was possible.
The disc starts off with the title track. A nice subtle
drone and
distortion linger throughout. The music just floats
around your head
putting you in a trance like state. The relaxing
ambience only gets
better with each track. This album maybe a little
slower then the last
one. But none the more effective. "Birds Flying In
Sequence" starts out
with a nice tribal feel. Once the guitar and bass take
control. The
song then begins to take on true form. I can only
imagine how these guys
feel when they listen to their finished project. They
must be so proud.
The natural beauty of their releases is something every
person should
experience. Undeniably there's power in the voice and
atmosphere
of their music. Hammock are the musical equivalent of
the most relaxing
body massage. This release deserves so much attention.
I hope after
reading this a few of you will feel obligated to
purchase this
masterpiece.
