We Scattered Ashes

from Parting Ways by The Sky Above and Earth Below

lyrics

That day we sat on the lot for hours, bathing on the concrete shore. Amber rays spilled down your back like a bucket of saltwater, sultry and sweet as it left our skin. These are times when we can’t keep up with ourselves. Words still don’t amount to the way we felt, only the words we spoke as we tangled in a half-windsor… “This is how we’ll remember it…” as if we knew. How could we know? I can’t stand such a selfish thought of you. Where are you? What are you doing? Do you remember?

An inspired triumph for the best post-hardcore in existence right now. The musicianship is top-notch here, spilling over with knotted, yet conversely open arrangements that resound with what I'd imagine American Football's circuitous guitar wizadry would sound like if woven into the brilliant, screaming, sonic chaos of Daitro. brantly

This is one of my favorite records of recent years, and mye absolute favorite of 2013. I wrote this review of it for the music site I have been writing for since 1999 (it's in Norwegian, but I gave it 6 out of 6, as you can see!): http://panorama.no/2014/04/12/bolgende-emosjoner-pa-toppniva/ Frode Fossvold-Jørum
