About This Item
Nearly a year and a half in the making, Opticks is a gently enchanting new record that ? while once again home-recorded - dramatically upgrades Silje Nes's sound and sees her making considerable advances on her acclaimed 2008 debut, Ames Room. Intricately constructed, warm and brimming with melodic hooks, Opticks is a record full of wonder, unfurling a series of increasingly accessible and catchy little songs. Despite - or, more likely, due to - this kitchen sink approach, Opticks is a coherent expression of Silje Nes's lovely, forward-looking vision engaging, delicate, and transformative. Album Tracks 1.
