Other Worlds by Firelights, the brainchild of Norwegian guitarist Rick F., offers an alluring journey through an instrumental post-rock landscape. Other Worlds showcases Rick’s mastery of the guitar, and delivers a dynamic range of moods from serene to intensely heavy.
Influenced by contemporary progressive rock and metal, Firelights has created a sound that is both familiar yet uniquely its own. With each track drawing one into another world, or I should say with each track drawing one into Other Worlds, the songs are expansive and filled with intricate melodies and soaring guitar riffs.
With Rick’s meticulous ear, Other Worlds is a poetic listening experience with gentle ebbs and flows and at times thunderous crescendos that evoke emotion through music. From beginning to end, Other Worlds is a transcendental sonic experience.
