Light and dark, quiet and crushing, inviting and terrifying, manic and methodical, blistering and graceful; what stands out on this latest Chrome Ghost release is the juxtapositions, the dichotomies. Contrast.
Well, that, and the sheer, naked creative prowess of a generational band at its best. Sgt. Pepper, Led Zeppelin IV, Aenima; we are witnessing on of these moments here. Not just an "album," and opera. And a treasure.
Reverence.
