This Winter Machine - A Tower Of Clocks
Review by Chris Riedy
This Winter Machine's album, A Tower Of Clocks, is a captivating and well-crafted piece of work that showcases the band's immense talent and creativity. The album features a unique blend of progressive rock and atmospheric soundscapes that transport the listener to a world of their own.
From the opening track, "Delta," the listener is drawn into a sonic journey through time and space. The intricate instrumentation and soaring vocals create a sense of urgency and intensity that is carried throughout the entire album.
The title track, "A Tower Of Clocks," is a standout moment on the album, with its haunting piano melody and emotive lyrics. The song builds to a climactic finish that leaves a lasting impression on the listener.
