Sorrow - Dreamstone (2013)

From a guy who’s nickname is Sorrow it’s natural to expect sad, depressing music, right? Not in this case, at least not in “Dreamstone”. None of the twelve tracks available on the album is filled with…well, sorrow. I know that’s a subjective thing, but still I will insist on the fact that this LP is devoid of sadness. The first track “Elixir” is a wonderful example of it as it makes me think about childhood, that carefree time when we were always playing about joyfully. Maybe that was the idea behind it, it was supposed to have that effect hence the title. “Dreamstone” and “Dalliance” on the other hand are, for me, the highlight of the album. The appearance of CoMa, an uprising female vocalist, had much to do with it. Her delicate voice adds another dimension to the tracks and makes them oneiric.
