Our Take

Johann Johannsson's 'The Miners Hymns' is a hauntingly beautiful ode to a forgotten era. The Icelandic composer takes us on a journey through the industrial heart of Britain, capturing the hardship and resilience of the working class through a mix of orchestral and electronic sounds.

From the haunting drones of 'The Cause' to the triumphant crescendo of 'The Miners Hymns', Johannsson's compositions are both epic and intimate, painting a vivid portrait of a world long gone. The use of brass instruments gives the music a mournful quality, while the stark, minimalist arrangements evoke a sense of desolation and loss.

But don't let the somber themes fool you - there is a strange beauty in the darkness of 'The Miners Hymns', a beauty that is both captivating and unsettling. Johannsson's ability to evoke emotion through music is truly remarkable, and this album is a testament to his skill as a composer.

In short, 'The Miners Hymns' is a masterpiece of modern classical music, a stark and hauntingly beautiful work that will stay with you long after the final notes have faded away. Johann Johannsson has once again proven himself to be a master of his craft, and this album is a must-listen for any music lover.
