Dramatic and fiery, Toward the Low Sun is the kind of record that summons moods and invokes emotional landscapes. Violin, electric guitar and drums shiver, shimmer, crash and chime; the path taken by the album is wending and impressionistic rather than being oriented towards crescendos or clear closure. Favourites - the haunted "Sometimes I Forget You've Gone", guitar-led, Neil Young-y "That Was Was", and gentle, sighing "Ashen Snow".
