FROSTING

I find it daring, how a band that pushes boundaries has managed to create such a collection of songs that, indeed, are not placed within the realms of a typical progressive rock album. But, nevertheless, the creativity and the craftsmanship of the different instrumentation is there. Progressive rock has always been for me, a way to push tastes and ways of making music. Of course a in a more conservative approach what we have here is less attached to what people expect from an art-rock band, and that is what is positive here, very in the way SW managed to create something completely different, here we have a band from Boston that has always figured out a way to surprise listeners. The Art-pop we hear, the existence of multiple electronic effects and the soul of the album still carries the central idea of the band: never stop experimenting with sound, ideas, harmonies and music itself. A good lesson for people who tend to want their bands to remain in one sound, and specially in a time where new conservadurism is spreading like a pandemic al around the world.
