Entry 1408 - Swallow the Sun - Songs from the North - Part II


Style: Acoustic

Primary Emotions/Themes: This part drops all of the metal and focuses on the bands lighter acoustic side

Thoughts: This may be my favorite thing the band has ever done. For one moment they dropped all metal, all pretense of being heavy and simply allowed the melodies flow and let the music speak to my soul. Not that their metal is bad, it's quite good... it's just that this is better.

I can't get over how wonderful this music is. The melodies from the guitar and voice are the closest he band has ever come to being truly comforting. It's... god I wish I had words for this. This part defies me talking about it, just go listen to it and be ready to be swept away by the music. Best thing these guys have ever done.
