PAINT THE SKY RED - Not All Who Wonder Are Lost CD

Combining elements of ambient and classic post rock, „Not All Who Wonder Are Lost“ from singapores Paint TheSky Red offers a very palatable musical experience. Captivating guitar chimes and a relentless tempo provides a powerful yet sweet but not overly saccharine melody throughout the album. „To Everness“ opens with a breezy mist of light subtle tones, then breaks into a steady run, like a gallop through the woods, fir trees racing by, the cool air fresh against your skin. „While We Sleepwalk“ continues the dreamy intro with its lushful and hopeful melodies while „A Billet Doux“ carries you with a steadily-building rhythm, and at its peak plunges into the motions of an enchanting dance, with breath-taking twists and dips, and twirls that sweep you off your feet. The aptly-named „Victory“ starts sombre and tense – a shot in the dark, war drums sounding in the deep; joy and euphoria follow, but laced still with the spectre of unease. With each composition Paint the Sky Red surrounds you with the lore of a tale anew, open-ended in its wordlessness yet visually evocative. The band never tells you their stories outright, but rather lets you discover them for yourself.
