A Winged Victory For The Sullen Invisible Cities

Vinyl LP pressing. Housed in gatefold jacket. 2021 release. Invisible Cities opens with the numinous 'So That the City Can Begin to Exist', as Wiltzie and O'Halloran draw breath from distinctively enthralling and vastly expansive worlds. The ominous soundscapes of 'The Dead Outnumber the Living' contrast with the new beginnings that are presented in 'Every Solstice & Equinox', while the jagged and uneasy 'Thirteenth Century Travelogue' is one of tension and dread. Elsewhere, 'The Divided City' captivates and intrigues while 'Only Strings and Their Supports Remain' and 'There Is One of Which You Never Speak' are bold roars for survival before the choral ambience of 'Desires Are Already Memories' and piercing drones of 'Total Perspective Vortex' bring down the curtain on a spectacular and incredibly emotive body of work.
