Apparently at one time, Chicago-based group The Shade of Cyan have been a extra vox-forward outfit, however the appear to have deigned to wipe previous work from reminiscence. Now the main target is on two issues: pitch-perfect guitars and delightful ambient manufacturing work. The result’s their, for all intents and functions, debut album, Agape, and with the extent of mastery displayed on this LP, it’s exhausting to think about they have been doing the rest.
For the reason that Google slate has been wiped of any earlier work, it’s exhausting to take a position what The Shade of Cyan gave the impression of previous to 2020 with with Agape completely bursting with emotive and masterful guitar work, hovering atmospherics and analog drums, there’s a lot to have a look at and admire on this one album.

The guitars, atmospherics, grounding beats and hovering melodies are all simply to connote what many people realized throughout these final two years, summed up finest by the band themselves:
Agape is our journey by way of this world. Regardless that the moments are distinctive for every one among us, we’re all related by these emotions
