Distant realms are closer than one would think. Sure, remote destinations are basically just that - remote - but that doesn't mean other people can't connect from the outside. If anything, by doing so, the chances of unification are increased and even courtesy is augmented. Form together to create a single entity able to follow limitless possibilities. Reminds me of what Iranian-American singer/songwriter Azam Ali attempts (and mostly succeeds) to do on her 2006 studio album in a way. Sporting 9 tracks in all, Elysium for the Brave is a diverse fox of a record, but it's also a pretty consistent one at that. Dense, magical, and gripping all above else, this album's stylistic choices alongside Ali's vocals alone are too zesty to pass up.
