Alma

• Track Listing

[Instead] of splitting the listener's attention into what the strings are doing and what the rest of the band is doing, the different parts, on the compositional level, are more complementary and cohesive. This doesn't mean that Alma is simpler; on the contrary, it's an intricate album with lots to listen to. But check out the opening to "Becoming", the second track and listen to how the strings work with everything else on the intro, how they "serve up" the listener into the main riff. That's what makes Alma so great and what enables me to finally say: I love Windfaerer.
