GLASS VAULTS - GLASS EP


Glass Vaults are a band from Wellington, New Zealand, that have just put out their first free download only EP. Glass is a five songs EP of ambient pop songs that starts with the chilly and floaty intro They Will Go, mutates into the epic (but not grandiloquent) ballad Set Sail, changes the tempo for the dance oriented New Space, goes back to chilly synths for Worrier and ends with the perfect pop track Forget Me Not.
The whole EP sounds like if it's been conceived to be played in the order they placed the songs, as a kind of an evocative trip through their sound, fact that is admirable on the era of the shuffle and the playlists. Anyway, the songs also work well on isolation and, although the synths sometimes sound as chilly as ice cubes, the warmth of the vocals and their ability to get melodies soften down the whole thing.
