Bleep

Thomas Meluch drops his sixth album for Kranky, an introspective and self-healing aural document from the American artist dedicated to his deceased brother (who passed the day this album was completed) and to anyone seeking paths away from their demons. Gentle guitar work, distant percussion and warm harmonies combine to make Listening Matter feel very personal to its creator, yet extroverted enough to carry the message into the ears of anybody who comes across it.
