Einar Stray Orchestra - Chiaroscuro - LP (transp. vinyl)

Seven tracks, fifty minutes: "Chiroscuro" is an outreaching gesture. The attempt must fail, but it does with grace and beauty: sing-along-choruses for the soul, tap-along-rhytthms for the heart, dramatic rides through dramatic landscapes, pretty Liebesperlen fit into cracky snow globes, noise eruptions and eternal beauty, mind-tearing weights and solace by the gallon. "Chiaroscuro" is door, document, snow globe and, well, chiaroscuro. And storm flood on top, no queue of metaphers can prepare you for. Just hurl yourselve into it!

This LP comes on slightly milky, transparent vinyl, and includes a full-coloured inner sleeve.
