Editorial Reviews
Brooklyn's A Storm of Light is back with their second full-length and the follow-up to 2008's And We Wept the Black Ocean Within.
The record's power comes from a dense melding of melodies, moods, and textures. As heavy and cataclysmic as fans would expect, the devastating effects rely on interwoven melodies and graceful shifts in timbre instead of a stream of identikit riffs.
A Storm of Light is comprised of Josh Graham (Red Sparowes), Domenic Seita (Tombs, Asea), Andy Rice, and Joel Hamilton. On Forgive Us Our Trespasses, they are joined by a host of carefully chosen collaborators that includes vocalist Nerissa Campbell (Primitive North) and Jarboe (Swans, World of Skin, J2); the otherworldly spoken word segues of singer / poet / author Lydia Lunch, and the mournful strings of Carla Kihlstedt (Book of Knots, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum) and Marika Hughes (2 Foot Yard) only enhance the richness. --This text refers to the Vinyl edition.

This review is from: Forgive Us Our Trespasses (Audio CD)
Its always hard for me to find music that I can enjoy. I have very specific taste and don't know what it is I like about the music I enjoy. This album is pretty great to me. I'll admit that I listen to some songs more than others. Midnight and Omega are the best. There are enjoyable moments all the way through the album.

Take my word, it's slow drawn out notes and boring composure are beyond redemtion. Maybe if you was fanatical green peace activist you would like.
