Touching Embers by Dyr Faser

Touching Embers, the new album by Dyr Faser. This release has a dynamic energy that we’ve come to expect from the duo, but this time with a deeper dive into musical variety. This release has a fusion of rock-rooted styles that feel thoughtfully textured, to put it lightly.

.There are tracks that have warm, colorful guitar tones and show some real-time energy, while others pull back a little, giving ambient moods that take over. The fuzzy textures riffs carry an indie-rock vibe throughout, giving the more experimental edges with a charm. But even when they give harder distortion or push toward heavier moments, they never go overboard.

Some songs take on an almost alternative pop approach, showing the band isn’t afraid to blur genre lines either. Then there are the more intimate, ambient-driven tracks that feel authentic. These have a certain softness that floats about.

Touching Embers is the result of its writers, Eric Boomhower and Amelia May. As a duo, their shared vision and natural feel for collaborating is essential for how the record turned out in the end.

For those who are in some need for an album with some diversity in songwriting and sound, but also sticks to its guns with that bit or warm and genuine sentiment, Touching Embers is a record you should hear.

Indie rock and alt-pop all the way home with some slightly different paths is something we want to hear more of, and his album feeds that want pretty damn well.
