naturalismo

Fresh off the presses from Greg Weeks’ Language of Stone imprint, Silver Summit’s self-titled debut LP drips with funereal prog/metal atmospherics. Hazy, smoky, and macabre, the record’s mellifluous vocal harmonies and meandering multi-ethnic instrumentation paint mental portraits of foggy Victorian streets, gypsy caravans, and Baghdad bazaars with effortless execution.  Silver Summit’s songwriting sometimes falls victim to its own sonic ambition, but Greg Weeks’ masterful production proves a hypnotic panacea to SS’s shortcomings.
