06.02.23 | I'm not 100% how up your alley this might be, intersecting somewhat with your request. But since it shares some Venn Diagram space, I have to evangelize this yet again: Martin Grech's 'Hush Mortal Core'. It's all over the place genre wise but maintains an air of chamber pop with lush orchestrations and unique melodies, while sometimes veering into tasteful metal territory. Wild front to back listen. |
