A Future So Bright

by FIRST LAW

supported by

Agent Viktor This is a masterpiece. Favorite track: Low Spirits Meme.

patient_ot Lots going on here: some darker ambience, some psychedelic passages, ambient techno, and restrained use of guitar. Impressive and well worth checking out.

about

Originally released in October 2012.

In its 20 years of existence -meanwhile the mastermind Andreas Wahnmann also has been active in several other musical projects- FIRST LAW released six full length CDs up to now and developed a trademark in sound research that is truly genre defying. The album title and the cover art for this magical 7th album stand in strong contrast to the musical content and the album manifests its ironical and deliberately conflicting nature right from the start. Deep and throbbing rhythmic patterns, endless layers of guitars droning and manipulated vocals are opposed by disturbingly beautiful melodies. The complexity of the recordings just emphasizes its depressing nature and takes the listener on a journey through sound and emotion. A FUTURE SO BRIGHT is nothing less than an outstanding sound-scape that flows like a hallucinatory maelstrom and marks the darkest release of FIRST LAW so far.

Never much to say about albums on Cryo Chamber. After a decade of listening - it's still composed of beautifully-made dark ambient sufficiently vague to defy even poetic written description. hello swirl
