SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: SPIRACLE – OSSIPHAGE (EXTENDED)

Spiracle

SPIRACLE
OSSIPHAGE (EXTENDED)
ROPE OR GUILLOTINE RECORDS

Coming up with a debut album that presents a fully formed artist, who previously officially had only three tracks available, just might be a miracle these days. In this case it is Copenhagen, Denmark, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Solveig Roseth who works under the moniker Spiracle and her formal debut album Ossiphage.

The darker overtones throughout, might be under the influence of the period when these compositions were originally written and recorded, the pandemic, sounding here as fully developed, complex, and mature music with those dark overtones still holding firm in their meaning and importance in those times.

It is music that is fully structured but the one that flows freely at the same time, blurring the borders between post-rock, (dark) dream pop, ambient, and modern classical with ease that promises more great stuff from Roseth.
