Like light refracting through timeworn glass, The Golden Age flickers between eras, drawing us in with delicate tones and elemental textures. It is a melodic tapestry of memory, a gentle parting from a cherished land, and a luminous haven sculpted in sound.
Unlike the usual live record, Under Certain Light and Atmospheric Conditions refuses to offer the listener a concert experience by proxy, to be had in the comfort of one’s own headphones.
