Album Review: On Days Soon To Pass by Tyler Daniel Bean

On Days Soon To Pass
Finding the right music to fit your mood can be a tricky thing. There's SO much variety out there it can be overwhelming and when it seems like the mountain is falling down around you that's not a welcome feeling.

One particularly fascinating aspect of being human is our ability to create, especially out of periods of darkness and suffering.

Music from this kind of place can often be heavy and brooding, but in the case of Tyler Daniel Bean's On Days Soon To Pass we get just the opposite, something instead uplifting and promising.

His second release hits the shelves tomorrow and it's an intimate journey through a period in Bean's life where he was experiencing many types of emotion that can put you down, permanently.

Deeply intellectual, this songs found in On Days Soon To Pass are partly the culmination of the writing he did while battling a major bout of depression.

Album Review: Kill The Ill by Brine

Kill The Ill
Something major happened here recently, something that chills me to my core, something that leaves me huddling under the blankets not wanting to get up in the morning. I'm talking, of course, about the first frost of the season

I know what you thought I meant, but this is a place of creativity and entertainment. Somewhere you can come to get away from all that other ugliness.

Grab some headphones and cue up the next track, sit back and sip on your favorite beverage of choice.

I'd recommend a hot drink now that Fall is truly here though it's been leaf-falling weather for a few weeks already, especially here in this *specific* spot. The new music I've been listening to lately all has a common feel to it, a decidedly autumnal bent.

Album Review: "In The Trees" by Hoots and Hellmouth

You may have noticed a distinct difference in the kinds of albums I've been reviewing and many of the others here at Glacially Musical.

Some of them are as different as the daily October weather in St. Louis. 85 and sweltering one day, 55 and overcast just a couple days later.

We thrive on contrast though, right?

Hoots and Hellmouth is a band from Pennsylvania that encompasses a huge variety of styles themselves and their newest album, In The Trees, showcases their diverse sound.

You are all in luck because it drops tomorrow!
