So here we are, halfway into 2011 and Kylesa‘s Spiral Shadow is still in heavy rotation in my house, car, iPod or pretty much any device capable of playing audio. What doesn’t seem like such a complex listen at first, just keeps growing on me and revealing new layers yet to be discovered.
The band didn’t completely reinvent themselves or suddenly come into their own. They just improved on what they already did well and added some subtle new flourishes. Nothing more, nothing less. Sometimes that’s all it takes.
If you haven’t checked out Spiral Shadow yet, you would be hard pressed to make better use of your time and money. Support good music.
