About This Item
At the end of the project's 20th anniversary celebrations, ROME rings in the next era of the band with a fresh and visionary album The Tower. ROME's new and ever more mature sound is informed by a radically minimalist folk approach, with nonetheless charmingly rich arrangements. The Tower is an introspective and enigmatic work. Lyrically demanding, ROME's songs require of the listener a willingness to penetrate shadows and trace the inner drama of the modern world clearly, calmly and convincingly. In a time which celebrates noise, fame and convenience, here is the well-crafted antidote, a hymn of praise to obscurity, difficulty and silence. ROME's The Tower is an unmissable majestic experience that won't leave you indifferent. Album Tracks 1. The Twine and the Twist 2. To the Great Work Only 3. Twilight Leaves 4.
