Moments Worth Listening For
The way the title track slowly dissolves its initial guitar melody into a massive, unmoving wall of shimmering light.
The introduction of deep, mournful cello notes that anchor the weightless guitar textures in Dark Beyond the Blue.
The final three minutes of the closing track where the sound thins out until only a faint, pulsing warmth remains.
