Our Take

This Mortal Coil's "Filigree & Shadow" is like a dark and brooding storm cloud hanging over your head, ready to unleash a deluge of melancholic beauty upon your unsuspecting ears. With its haunting vocals, atmospheric instrumentals, and eerie cover art that looks like something you'd find in a gothic antique shop, this album is a deliciously twisted journey into the depths of the human soul.

From the opening track, "Velvet Belly," with its haunting piano melody and ethereal vocals, to the closing notes of "Late-Night," a mesmerizing blend of strings and whispers, every moment of "Filigree & Shadow" is filled with a sense of foreboding and longing. The album's use of unconventional instrumentation, including harps, celestas, and dulcimers, adds a layer of otherworldly beauty to the already haunting soundscapes.

Lead vocalist Alison Limerick's haunting voice is the perfect foil for the album's dark and moody atmosphere, drawing you in with its raw emotion and vulnerability. The production, helmed by the legendary John Fryer, is nothing short of masterful, with each track feeling like a carefully crafted work of art.

Overall, "Filigree & Shadow" is a gothic masterpiece that will transport you to a world of shadowy beauty and haunting melodies. If you're a fan of ethereal wave, dream pop, or just music that makes you feel things, then this is an album you won't want to miss. So grab your blackest eyeliner, put on your finest velvet cloak, and prepare to be enchanted by This Mortal Coil's spellbinding sounds.
