Elara ~ In the Depths of Time, In an Ocean Made of Stars
Post-rock is a tricky genre. As a life-long fan, I tend to regard almost all post-rock as good. But each year, only a handful of post-rock albums rise above the remainder, demanding repeat plays. In the Depths of Time, In

SONAR ~ Black Light
Ebbing bass rumbles and guitar atmospherics commence Black Light, before dueling harmonic lines enter and a kick-and-bass rhythm jabs in bars of 5s and a 3. This time signature endures for the next seven minutes while the track evolves in
