Album Notes & Community Reviews
Australian instrumental quintet Laura crafted an incredibly dense, cinematic atmosphere on 'Radio Swan Is Down'. The deeply melancholic album focuses on exceptionally long, slow-building post-rock crescendos, extensively utilizing cello and massive walls of shoegaze guitar distortion to evoke a profound sense of sorrow.
