Our Take

Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra have truly outdone themselves with their sophomore album, "Born Into Trouble As the Sparks Fly Upward." This Canadian collective, led by the enigmatic Efrim Menuck, serves up a sonic feast that is as sprawling as it is mesmerising. From the opening track, "Sow Some Lonesome Corner So Many Flowers Bloom," to the epic finale, "Take These Hands And Throw Them In the River," this album takes the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions. The band's signature blend of post-rock, folk, and experimental sounds creates a tapestry that is both heartbreaking and hopeful. Menuck's vocals soar over the lush instrumentation, delivering poignant lyrics that touch on themes of love, loss, and redemption. The addition of strings and horns adds a cinematic quality to the music, giving it a grandeur that is truly immersive. "Born Into Trouble As the Sparks Fly Upward" is an album that demands to be listened to in its entirety, as each track builds upon the next, creating a cohesive and powerful listening experience. It's an emotional journey that will leave you breathless and yearning for more. In conclusion, Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra have crafted a masterpiece that solidifies their place as one of the most innovative and exciting bands in the musical landscape. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that is both challenging and beautiful.
