The Sight Below‘s latest album has just been released, entitled It All Falls Apart, and is just the sort of follow up album that you’d expect from this Seattle-based recluse. Building on his previous EP, and album, 2008′s Glider, TSB has developed a more complex soundscape that has solidified his work as some of the best in the post-ambient/shoegaze world. Shimmer, the album’s opening piece, stands out as one of the most striking tracks, with it’s reverb-laden strings and surging low-end; a very strong statement to begin the adventure.
The most impressive, albeit, restrained track has got to be the 13 minute finale, Stagger. A quintessential Sight Below movement, this Eno-esque scape highlighted by a low-fi loop underbelly to a submarine-pulse with the slightest hint of breakbeat, all baked together to create the perfect score to any 3AM bout of insomnia.
