Michael Mueller
This a such a deep, beautiful and mysterious album. I've played it dozens of times and it continues to reward the ears and the soul.
Rustre's vocals creep in and out of ambient soundscapes and more fully formed songs, offering insights in his frayed sigh of a voice.
Within cascading waterfalls of sound and crunched-rust flourishes, there are chordal progressions and unorthodox time signatures that frame and refract listener attention.
One of my favourite albums of 2020.
Favorite track: Far Away // Everything Is the New Nothing (digital only).
