While I’m tempted to gush about Since Torino’ I’ll leave it with saying I’m a fan. Simple as that.
So, sometimes you think you get a band, you think you have a handle on their sound, And then they go and do something that makes you rethink what you thought. ‘transatlantic flight song’ is that release.
It still has that Since Torino feel; thoughtful and intensely personal, and carefully crafted and put together.It’s just that this song is built around retro sounding synths It’s, to coin a phrase, a retro synth ballad. And when I say ballad I mean that in the sense of it being a story narrated.It sounds like vintage electronica. It’s moody, somewhat dark and intensely atmospheric. It has words that make you want to listen again and again until you get them and the\ story they tell,
So while this song has me rethinking what I’d previously assumed about the band, somehow I always knew they would do that at some stage. And I love it when a band does that; I am not the type of person who demands a band always ‘sound’ the same, I just want their music to be recognisably them, and this is recognisably Since Torino.
‘transatlantic flight song’ is compelling and mesmirising. It sounds absolutely gorgeous. This is absolutely wonderful. You just have to hear this.
