Our Take

God Is An Astronaut's self-titled album is a cosmic journey through sound, navigating the outer reaches of post-rock with expert precision. The Irish trio masterfully blend dreamy guitar melodies, pulsating drum beats, and ethereal synths to create a mesmerising sonic landscape that is as immersive as it is exhilarating.

From the opening track "Epitaph" to the hauntingly beautiful "Snowfall," each song on this album takes the listener on a transcendental voyage through space and time. The band's ability to effortlessly shift from moments of quiet introspection to explosive crescendos is nothing short of spellbinding.

Lead guitarist Torsten Kinsella's intricate guitar work is a highlight on every track, weaving intricate tapestries of sound that evoke images of swirling galaxies and distant stars. Drummer Lloyd Hanney and bassist Jamie Dean provide a solid rhythmic foundation, propelling the music forward with a relentless energy that is impossible to resist.

God Is An Astronaut have once again proven themselves to be masters of their craft with this album, delivering a captivating listening experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression. Whether you're a longtime fan of the band or a newcomer to their music, this album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates innovative and boundary-pushing music. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
