Review

Last Light is the brand new album of former World Serpent artist Tor Lundvall. Tor Lundvall's major musical releases to date have been highly atmospheric, mainly consisting of a four album cycle based on the four seasons: Autumn Calls (with Tony Wakeford of Sol Invictus), Ice, The Mist, and 2003's celebrated Under the Shadows of Trees. Each one is a distinct soundscape that perfectly captures the magic of its time of year, as seen through Tor's eyes. With each new release Tor added a bit more vocals and lyrics, while keeping an atmospheric approach, remaining loosely in the "ambient" music category. The seasonal cycle completed, it's time for a new chapter, and here it is with the major new release, Last Light. Without giving away everything, Last Light is the first Tor Lundvall album that may be said to be set indoors rather than out. Furthermore, the lyrics and vocals are now the focus of the music. Initially the words are used descriptively, to set the mood and atmosphere. From there, we start learning for the first time what's going on in Tor's mind. Thoughts that might have been whispered on the wind in previous releases are now on center stage. Musically, the lush, organic-sounding, reverb-loaded electronics are pleasing and enveloping as ever, while more structured and focused than before. If one word describes all of Tor Lundvall's music it's got to be, "moody," and this new album is no exception in that regard at all. Tor's converted fans will be ready to soak in whatever mood he chooses to set, and here's the next serving. For those who have yet to sample Tor's music, it may not be readily comparable to any other artist, but those who enjoy Brian Eno's ambient works will certainly find qualities to appreciate in the soundscapes of Tor's own world. Now with the release of Last Light, fans of David Sylvian, Fennesz, and even Lycia will discover music that strikes a welcome chord.
