This review is from: Era (Audio CD)

Due to confusion, I thought this was a new Era cd but it turns out "Era" is the name of the album by the duo In the Nursery. The music is a bit dreary and monotonous. Still I wasn't ready to give up on the cd just yet. After a few more listens, the music eventually began to grow on me. There is a dark, ambient influence, almost a more sinister sound especially on "Silent in Time". I wasn't really too fond of that particular track especially the vocals by Klive Humberstone. Sarah Jay Hawley who has worked with Massive Attack in the past contributes to a few tracks on the album. Her fragile vocals complements the sparse electronic melodies especially on "Tempered Wings". I really love her whispery vocals on the sumptuous orchestral track "Vantage". "Era" is a good cd but there is nothing here that I haven't already heard before in ambient music. Another thing I didn't care much for this cd was that I could not upload it on to my itunes library for the library.
