Battle Of Britain Memorial - The Aftermath Of Your Bright Beings

Review by Marie Elena Mathisen

The Battle Of Britain Memorial has released their latest album, The Aftermath Of Your Bright Beings, and it is a stunning showcase of their musical abilities. The album is a mesmerizing journey through genres like post-rock, ambient, and experimental music. The band has created a soundscape that is both haunting and beautiful, with tracks that are both contemplative and intense.

The album opens with "The Aftermath," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The use of atmospheric sounds and the slow-building crescendo creates a sense of anticipation and tension that is carried throughout the album. The guitars and drums are used sparingly, but when they do come in, they hit hard and add to the overall impact of the music.

The album's centerpiece is the track "Bright Beings," which is a beautiful and haunting piece of music. The use of strings, piano, and subtle electronic elements creates a sense of melancholy and introspection. The track builds to a crescendo before fading out, leaving the listener with a feeling of catharsis.

The album's closing track, "The End," is a fitting end to the journey that the album takes the listener on. The track is a slow, contemplative piece that fades out into silence, leaving the listener with a sense of closure.
