Indistinct voices whisper and chatter as a piano plays quietly in the background.
Static rises and dies, the voices increase, and still the piano plays through until the end. To listen to this band is to sink into a sleep full of beautiful, disturbing dreams. The tracks defy individual description. Together, they form a aural landscape full of peaks and valleys. The melodies and rhythms are flawless, deep and rich without being melodramatic, and full of subtle effects that makes the difference between monotony and captivation.
