someday river

Someday River have always been adept at crafting atmosphere, but these are some of Charnock’s most evocative and memorable melodies to date. And the mild but massive dynamics are perhaps the band’s best sonic balance yet. That alluring synergy dazzles most in standout tracks “Wake Me Up Sometime” and “Letting Off Balloons,” which pack sweeping pop sighs as wide as the sky. Even the near-lullaby “Lemon Tree” carries an undercurrent that hints at vastness.
