Balmorhea’s 09 release, All Is Wild, All Is Silent, captured the expansive soundscape of the West Texas frontier, depicting the expansive landscapes through the keys, guitars and swells of strings. By contrast, Constellations shifts focus upward towards the sky, thoughtfully reflecting on the metaphysical. Constellations is a simple and intimate collection of compositions that are both affecting and beautiful. Once again Balmorhea’s brilliance shines through with a slow-burning dependability that is an excellent addition to their discography. – Written by JFelton
