Review by Sai Venkatesh Gondhi

Home by Charalambides is an album that showcases the band's unique blend of folk, psychedelic, and experimental music. The album contains nine tracks that take the listener on a journey through dreamy soundscapes and haunting melodies.

The opening track, "Before You Go," sets the tone for the album with its gentle acoustic guitar and soft vocals. The song builds slowly, adding layers of instrumentation and creating a rich, textured sound.

Throughout the album, Charalambides experiments with different sounds and textures, using instruments like the flute, piano, and synthesizer to create a diverse range of moods and atmospheres. The result is a collection of songs that are both cohesive and varied, showcasing the band's versatility and creativity.

One standout track is "Joy Shapes," which features a hypnotic guitar riff and ethereal vocals that build to a stunning climax. The song is a perfect example of Charalambides' ability to create a sense of otherworldly beauty in their music.

Charalambides is a trio of Texas creative musicians performing extended guitar and voice compositions and improvisations. Their music moves between poles of tonality and atonality, utilizing volume, space, silence, folk and psychedelia, and the scrape and hiss of steel on steel. Initially conceived as a recording project, the group has steadily evolved toward music of a more public nature. Formed in Houston in 1991 (and relocated to Austin in 1997), Charalambides has evolved through various configurations based on the core duo of Tom & Christina Carter. From 1993 to 1996 they performed and recorded with guitarist Jason Bill (currently with Arizona duo Migrantes), and since 2000 the lineup has included steel guitarist Heather Murray (formerly of Ash Castles on the Ghost Coast).
