Our Take

Title: A Winged Victory For The Sullen - A Lyrical Symphony that Soars High

If music had wings, A Winged Victory For The Sullen's self-titled album would be its breathtaking flight across the musical landscape. This duo, comprised of Stars of the Lid's Adam Wiltzie and pianist Dustin O'Halloran, has crafted an ethereal and emotive masterpiece that transcends traditional boundaries of genre.

From the opening notes of "We Played Some Open Chords and Rejoiced, for the Earth Had Circled the Sun Yet Another Year," it's clear that this album is not your average stroll in the park. The track builds and swells with a quiet intensity, as if each note holds a universe of emotion within it.

Tracks like "Requiem for the Static King Part One" and "Steep Hills of Vicodin Tears" showcase the duo's ability to create lush, ambient soundscapes that envelop the listener in a warm embrace. The delicate piano melodies and haunting strings combine to create a sonic tapestry that is both haunting and beautiful.

One can't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder while listening to this album. It's like being transported to a world where time stands still and music is the only language that matters. So, if you're in the mood for a musical journey that will leave you breathless, look no further than A Winged Victory For The Sullen's mesmerising debut. Fly high, my friends. Fly high.
