Stroszek - A break in the day [EP]

Genre : Neofolk

It's been a while since I haven't been posting neofolk. Well, problem is I have hard times finding really pretty neofolk recently. However, Stroszek is worth a mention! First, it's not instrumental, but rather features some really interesting and beautiful female vocals. Usually, I'm not really into those, but here they fit quite well, maybe because the acoustic guitars carry them perfectly. Well, and that's all you have here. A couple acoustic guitar lines, and those vocals. Stroszek makes it very traditional, and this is typically what you can expect from some neofolk : beautiful melodies with a hint of melancholy. Check it out, if female vocals don't disturb you!

Here are a couple songs for you to check, mostly instrumental Secrets of the earth and Green jade. And follow Stroszek on Facebook. A break in the day is available as a free download on bandcamp.

Introduction

Ethereal soundscapes is just one more blog that's about music. This one focuses on various kinds of ambient/atmospheric music, be it post-rock, neofolk, or black metal and some alternate genres such as post-metal, post-black or folk black. It mostly tries to stick to an underground scene, you don't want to learn about artists you already know, do you?

I won't give any marks as it'd be pointless, since I love all those albums and would rate them from 8 to 10 out of 10. I prefer using quick, to-the-point reviews that are easily read instead of blabbering a ton about music. Also, summarizing months of work and dedication with a number simply isn't my vision of reviewing. Still I will add, as much as possible, official links for streams, news and merch.
