"Sparkling melodies which for all its charms is quietly and unambiguously lust-laden" - Evening Standard (UK)
Once again the brother and sister duo share the song writing duties on Down The Way, their individual styles compliment each other and juxtapose beautifully as they express their alternate views of lost love and yearning. This is shown especially well in the epic and rich tapestry of Hold On and the albums first single And The Boys which was co-produced by Brad Albetta (Martha Wainwright). Elsewhere touches of piano and understated finger picking guitar light up the darkness of the sound on the track For You and Big Jet Plane sees Angus’s rustic tones rolling atop a dreamy string arrangement. Draw Your Swords is a six-minute work out building to an unrestrained crescendo revealing a true passion and Devil’s Tears features gentle piano and sweet acoustic guitars to beautifully close the album. Down The Way is thirteen lovingly crafted songs reflecting a myriad of emotions and another graceful step on a remarkable musical journey for Angus & Julia Stone. |
