Ok. Still no The Politics of Dancing review, as I have not been able to stop listening to Amber.
As you may have guessed, I really dig this album. I have found it to be more enjoyable than Music Has the Right to Children at medium to medium high volumes. Each of the tracks elicits a different emotion. Track 1 "Foil" reminds me of a plane crashing for some reason. Just the overall sound of the track gives a feeling of impending disaster. Track 4 "Slip" on the other hand, is a more upbeat track which gives me feelings of a bright future, maybe one with flying cars. Track 9 "Yulquen" is a depressing experience. It sends a chill of failure through my mind. The kind of failure that you subtly know about in your head. Track 11 "Teartear" is another bummer of an ensemble. This time it is in a more upbeat flavor than "Yulquen," but it is chilling to listen to. It has an air of deception about it, and that works to its advantage as it works over the listener. You can't help but listen to this track. It reminds me of some background music like I would hear in an episode of Doctor Who.
Is anyone still with me here??
**crickets chirping**
EDIT May 31st: after listening to Amber as much as I have been, I have found myself putting Music Has the Right to Children back in.
....no one is listening
