Natalie’s Picks

Sleepmakeswaves – Made Of Breath Only
Track to check out: Into The Arms Of Ghosts
Our review: https://www.soundscapemagazine.com/sleepmakeswaves-made-of-breath-only-review/

The new album from Sleepmakeswaves really left a strong impression on me; it’s ambient and atmospheric, and is a very moving piece as a whole.

Dead By April – Worlds Collide
Track to check out: I Can’t Breathe
Our review: https://www.soundscapemagazine.com/dead-by-april-worlds-collide-review

I wasn’t so fussed on the band’s last album but Worlds Collide is a definite return to form for DBA – and hearing Pontus Hjelm’s clean vocals once again is such a treat!
