Reviews & Discussion

Review by Aug 09, 2004 (edited over 7 years ago)
Filigree & Shadow is one powerful album, mainly a 25 tracks album that sounds like one and only song moving through different landscapes of feelings. This impressive intrications of ambient soundscapes with the deep vocals of Alison Limerick and the distant vocals of Dominic Appleton renders a tremendous sensation throughout the album. Sometimes dark, sometimes full of hope, Filigree & Shadow is a sombre melancholic journey into the mind of an ethereal heart.
