Album Review: Circuit Des Yeux - -io
“The process of -io might have started with a life ending, but it ends with a new life beginning. Much like those long orange sunsets she would watch in Florida, -io signals the end of a period of Fohr’s life, but not without giving off an enormous burst of intense light, warmth and colour before it goes – and then returns anew. Over the course of the album, we seem to hear Fohr coming to terms with the vastness of mortality, and realising that it is in itself beautiful – it is what makes life precious. With the enormity of that acceptance gradually arriving, her soul emerges, no longer eclipsed by grief, shining brighter than ever.”
I absolutely adore the new album from Haley Fohr aka Circuit Des Yeux. Head to BPM for my full review of -io.
