Fifty-word review

Golden Archipelago

Buy It

This album is mysteriously timeless. It hints at Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, boats sailing, flags waving. A simultaneous sense of weight and weightlessness. It’s vast, oceanic, cinematic. The music of nowhere and everywhere. A hymnal for pre- and post-battle. Perfect for setting off on a journey or making grave decisions.
