专辑简介

James Hodkinson and Mark Wilson met at college in the early 1990's, played together in various live contexts, and numerous side-projects, but finally reunited in 2009 to form Shadowlight. This band finally offers both musicians a chance to work on ambitious, extended songwriting that draws together all their influences: rock and metal, progressive ambitions, classical orchestration, and ambient synthesis.

The product is a collection of unique songs that emotionally engage, but extend beyond generic rock song-writing; they combine driving metal guitar riffs and leads with delicate classical and acoustic instrumentation, peruse wide-ranging rhythmic experiments and boast layered harmony vocals with memorable hooks - all set against other-worldly, evocative atmospheres. A rich mix, showcasing great musicianship, but without wandering into abstraction.
