Former Selves - Selige Sehnsucht

Review by Jennifer White

Former Selves' Selige Sehnsucht is a hauntingly beautiful album that takes the listener on an introspective journey through melancholic soundscapes. The album's title, which translates to "Blessed Longing," perfectly encapsulates the overall mood of the music.

The songs are a mix of ambient and experimental sounds, with layers of ethereal vocals and distorted instruments creating a dream-like atmosphere. The album's opener, "Lament," sets the tone with its mournful piano melody and eerie background noises.

As the album progresses, the tracks become more complex and varied in their instrumentation. "The Last Time" incorporates a driving beat and distorted guitar riffs, while "Fading Away" features a delicate acoustic guitar and soft vocals.

Summary by Jennifer White

Selige Sehnsucht is a beautifully crafted album that showcases Former Selves' ability to create emotive and atmospheric music. It's a must-listen for fans of ambient and experimental genres.
