Deep, fuzzy bass and a hypnotic drum beat come up to greet you, sounding like a thrash metal band playing through a funnel. And this is when things start to get weird. As the opening track “Falling” proceeds, creepy, distorted vocals start making themselves known, and the album begins to transition from in-your-face to under-your-skin. Before things start to get too creepy though, Winterquilt pulls things back a bit; the second track “Him” eases off, letting a bit of sunshine in. This track also has the most traditional vaporwave sound by far, relying less on rock elements — at first, anyway. Hot off the presses at Geometric Lullaby, following their long line of
