Hope Is Leaving You
(Independent)
4.5/5
In need of a soundtrack for your return to school? Chicago-based atmospheric post-rock band Starless have a new release called Hope Is Leaving You. This album is a masterpiece of music that must be heard this fall.
Hope Is Leaving You contains seven tracks, each presenting different styles and aspects of music, which keeps the album interesting. The styles of music range from emotional and melodic to grooving, fast, hard rock, which creates a captivating array of moods.
The change of flow in the tracks is one of the best elements of this album. Every track has different feelings, from epic and powerful to psychedelic and emotional.
The skills of the players in the band are undeniably excellent with technical—sometimes experimental—guitar riffs, incredibly tight drumming, melodic vocals, and even some special guest cello work.
Overall, Hope Is Leaving You is an album you can’t miss this September.
