All Towers Must Fall

by Phragments

tr_🇺🇦 Dark ambient with a wide variety of light noisy elements. The tracks are different enough to stay interesting. The first track made me think of chernobyl due to the mangled siren sound. The last track has a beat. I wonder if this has something to do with the dark tower series. Favorite track: All Towers Must Fall.

Robert Albertsen The texture. The environment. It is all tangible, something few albums can capture. A beautiful achievement of despair and a personal journey to the deconstruction of self and ego. Favorite track: The Iron Well.

Robert C. Kozletsky Matej shows the world once again it's an ugly and despairing place. All Towers Must Fall is stark and oppressive in its minimalist delivery. Save this one for what's to come. The soundtrack of our new age of chaos.. Favorite track: Defiance.
This Is Darkness

This Is Darkness This is the type album that I could listen to several times in a row, without losing interest or going mad, which is no small feat given the massive rumbling drones which build the foundation of the album.

Danica Swanson The aura of foreboding and apprehension is near-palpable in these richly layered orchestral dark ambient soundscapes...yet somehow, underneath the surface tumult and the ominous drones, an expansive quality makes itself known. It makes sense: there is comfort and hope in the fact that towers fall and empires crumble, after all. Polished to perfection, with great care and attention to detail, this is Phragments at their finest. Favorite track: Into Nothing.

about

The all new, fifth full-length album of Phragments is unmistakably dark ambient in nature, yet the overall feeling of the songs is more industrial this time. Moving a step further into harsher territory, "All Towers Must Fall" brings together dark ambience, heavily treated field recordings, classical instruments and also analogue synths, all echoing with orchestral grandeur. Phragments still follow a rather abstract and minimalist path, but this time the compositions have a touch of subtle chaos. With the atmosphere ranging from brooding to menacing, “All Towers Must Fall” is a gripping journey through desolate darkness, a gaze into the endless abyss. The release is presented on black vinyl, housed in a beautifully designed vinyl jacket. Limited to 250 copies.
