Description
Reigning as one of the most well-known experimental instrumental groups out there with a respected musical legacy spanning nearly 20 years, Irish four-piece GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT will reach a career benchmark upon the release of their 10th studio album, Ghost Tapes #10.Ghost Tapes #10 rekindles the band's classic line up with Jamie Dean once again on piano and guitar duties, and rather than pick up where the quartet left off in 2018, explores a radically different approach, with the focus fixed on movement and intensity. While the album is certainly the most ferocious GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT full-length to date, it still retains all of the rich musical and emotive elements the band is known for by maneuvering around luminescence whilst offering harsh, deep reflections as well. Works of art like "Burial", "In Flux" or "Barren Trees", with additional guitars by Jimmy Scanlan, amongst others, are proof of these sonic illustrations. The album closer, atmospheric "Luminous Waves", transports the listener into a trance-like mindset - captivating them with a meditative, deep connection to their inner self and as they drift away to stirring tunes of guest cello virtuoso Jo Quail.1. SINGLE - ENWith "Burial", Ireland-based post rock four-piece GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT initially decelerates their captivating creation while laying it down on a melancholic soundscape just to let it break free in the next breath. Dark tunes merge with sparks of hope and light to grow into a harmonious unit to catch up on the listener2. SINGLE - ENThe second single off GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT's tenth studio album, Ghost Tapes #10,directly calls for action with an intense wall of sound that culminates in a harsh climax shortly after. Keeping this energetic level on point, "Fade" comes to an end in an atmospheric and picturesque world of sounds to be discovered.
