A solemn rock success from Saeyers, “Lost at Sea” marks a return for the talented project of Marshall Baker. First catching our ears in 2019 with the track “Someday,” Saeyers continues to immerse with an atmospheric rock prowess a half-decade later.
Jangling guitar layers craft a hypnotic composure initially, easing into an elongated vocal lushness that plays seamlessly alongside. “I’m lost at sea,” Baker laments as morose guitar twangs complement the moody mix; the lyrics are heartrending in the expressing giving it all, yet coming up short and feeling adrift. Vocal vulnerabilities, conveying one’s deepest fears and heart-aching, pairs with the chilly guitar trickling for another moving, haunting rock success from Saeyers.
