Free Music Notes for Twilight
Free Music Review: How have I not heard of them earlier?
Hit: 5 Stars
I stumbled across this band after it was recommended in another review and I couldn't be happier. There are very few bands that I come across that are this impressive and I listen to lots of different music. It's some of the best stuff I've heard in a while. Granted this is the most religious-oriented stuff I've heard but I give them props for singing about what they believe in and who cares when the music is this good? The ambient sounds are what does it for me and almost all of the songs on here are completely captivating. Relaxing, yet uplifting, these guys are by far the most talented and underrated group I've heard in years. I look forward to more.Free Music Review: Top 10 CD of All-Time

I'm pretty anal about CD's--I only keep those in which I like more than half the songs and burn the good stuff off of others. I have kept 89 total Cd's out of hundreds. Future of Forestry has come out with a powerful CD that definitely has U2 influences, yet a sound all their own and has 10 solid songs and is one of the 10 best Cd's I've heard. I understand music tatses are all subjective, but I'd have a hard time believing that anyone who likes intelligent and catchy rock/pop would not like this Cd. From upbeat songs like "All I Want" to the beautiful"If You Find Her", along with the semi-melancholy and powerful "Speak to me Gently" and "Twilight"---this Cd is one of the best Cd's to come out in a while. Well worth the money. No fluff or crap here. As others have mentioned, the Something Like Silas CD, the band's former moniker, is definitely worth checking out. Let's pray we here more from these guys.Free Music Review: Ascension Grid

In short this is one of the few creative masterpieces of music to come out this year. Future of Forestry's music is ethereal, ambient and filled with passion. This (to warn others) is music made by Christians so beware! :o), but really could appeal to anyone open-minded as the lyrics are very picturesque and descriptive, rather than just saying "Jesus rocks" or something.
The 2nd song, "All I Want" gives a good feel for the passion and intensity of their music. It's a passionate cry to God of desire and dependency. This is the one of the standout tracks of the album. That passion continues in the song "Sunrising" which says, "You bend, You kiss me, You pull me, I can feel You running to me, running through me" then later cries of falling "into eternal visions of our love." The song drips with this desire of seeking God.
"Sanctitus" is probably one of the coolest songs here as well, which is mostly instrumental with soaring, falsetto vocal by lead singer Eric Owyoung. "Gazing" is another near the end of the CD which talks of being a child "gazing into wondrous grace." Powerful and unique lyrics spread throughout the album.
They also go quieter on ballads such as "Speak to Me Gently" which is an acoustic guitar-based simple song about God speaking His gentle words to us. Others such as "Twilight" and "Stay Beside Me" also bring more of an intimate sound to the album with lyrics that are deep instead of the normal shallow stuff for the Sunday/God Krew CCM crowd.
The style is Indie Rock with a mixture of lots of delayed guitars, with some U2 influence for sure, with ambient sounds and soaring vocals. The songs rise and fall with sometimes quieter verses to soaring choruses. If you want something new and fresh then get this CD today!
