The simple melody of the chorus is absolutely brilliant. "The Passage" brings the shade to the woods - the guitars sound more sinister, and Mariusz's melancholic singing perfectly complements the darker tones. "Navvie" instantly grabs the listener, letting them get entranced by tribal rhythms.
As the title would suggest, the main color of Through Shaded Woods is dark green.Īnd it's an incredible journey from start to finish. After the two "subcutaneous" songs ("The Song of a Dying Memory" and "Are You Ready for the Sun") and a claustrophobic, electronic solo album Lockdown Spaces, the Polish musical chameleon comes back with yet another release - the seventh album of Lunatic Soul. His back catalogue is immense, and yet one would struggle to find two albums sounding exactly the same - and that's counting all three of his main projects! Even Through Shaded Woods, heralded as a comeback to the black & white duology of Lunatic Soul is far from a rehash of ideas presented on these works.ĭuda has made 2020 a year of spoiling his fans. Mariusz Duda's music is constantly evolving, showing the boundless creativity of Riverside's frontman.
This was my most anticipated album of 2020.
