An instrumental rock delight from Pacific Death, “* * ocean of sleeping stars * *” balances vibrant captivation and lush intrigue. The track precedes the Stockholm-based artist’s upcoming fourth album. A series of singles are leading up to the full-length, with “* * ocean of sleeping stars * *” strutting an atmospheric rock entrancement that has us fully anticipating the album.
Soaring guitars and reflective keys mesh with a distortion-laden undercurrent, making for an instrumental rock captivation that’s both meditative and full of vigor. The rhythms scale back at the two-minute turn, allowing the guitars and keys to assume an effervescent, sunshine-friendly allure — with a soaring that continues to linger enjoyably into the conclusion. Frolicking, lounge-y piano tones drift into the satiating conclusion, fading out with a serene glow. We’re excited to hear more in the near future from Pacific Death.
