Issue 171

Former Messenger collaborators return in elegantly gloomy fettle.

- DAVID WEST

Liminal Sky reunites producer Jaime Gómez Arellano with multi-instrumentalist Daniel Knight. The pair previously worked together in the much-missed Messenger, who released two records in the 2010s. Like those Messenger outings, Liminal Sky's debut was recorded in Gómez Arellano's Orgone Studios, and there's a clear sense of continuity in the music as All Tomorrow's Darkness inhabits the same tonal and emotional landscape as Messenger's Illusory Blues from 2014. It's a sombre, if not gloomy, experience, evoking feelings of grey skies and grief.
