Globelamp - The Orange Glow (Wichita Recordings) 2016
8
Well, this is one hell of a cathartic experience. Perhaps one of the most intense and emotional heavy albums of the year. After a painful breakup and the death of her best friend, Elizabeth Le Fey (ex-Foxygen singer), Globelamp wrote this haunting, detailed and strongly personal journey entitled The Orange Glow. Singing about loss, life, change, survival and the charming enchantments of nature, Globelamp’s ethereal yet sometimes witchy voice brings some light into all this fairytale of sadness and disillusion. The Orange Glow is dark, emotional fucked up, but it’s an empowering statement. Songs like “Don’t Go Walking In The Woods Alone At Night”, “Mastery Of Lonely” and “Piece Of The Pie” are quite remarkable, in an effort that crumbles as it shines.
