‘Boxes of Candles’ needs to be experienced with patience and focus, fully savouring all the sonic nuances contained in the record. You see, the track is a rather hypnotising offering, built over dreamy textures and spacious guitar tones. A drum-less piece, ‘Boxes of Candles’ progressively rises in intensity, taking the listeners on a journey through melancholic yet hopeful emotions, evoking a strong sense of peace and acceptance.
While arpeggiated, hazy guitars introduce the record, it soon becomes clear there’s much more to its formula: The Great Depression’s layered and evocative vocals develop with charisma and ethereal energy, emitting cathartic and sacred energy. A true joy for the senses. A cinematic batch of majestic strings joins what’s an already compelling piece, helping it reach its zenith.
A collective of writers, producers and engineers based in Minnesota and Wisconsin, The Great Depression celebrates collaboration and creativity, helping their music reach higher territories. ‘Boxes of Candles’ is taken from ‘We Could Be Changed’, the collective’s latest album.
