Celestial Sea is a new project spawned fourth by Todd Paulsen (Uvall & Dormant) who handles all compositions and instruments on this debut with Andrew Curtis-Brignell (Caina) adding his voice to the songs.
Musically this four song debut offers up post rock music in a somewhat similar vein as bands like Explosions in the Sky, Mono, and Mogwai. When listening to this thirty three minute album you can expect to hear plenty of calm dreamy music, which is fairly common for post rock music, though there is plenty of synth used as well, and of course the vocals which don't always make appearances in every post rock band. Andrew's voice is fairly well performed and compliments Todd's music quite well, although its only heard on two of the songs. Its also worth mentioning that the music mostly remains calm throughout the recordings entire duration and there's only one dramatic build which leads into a sudden burst of speed.
If your a post rock fan that enjoys the calmer moments of the genre then this is definitely an album your going to want to check out. Do hurry however as its limited to just 300 copies.
