Genre: Alternative Rock
Rating: 5/5
Gungor. So mysterious, so good. The
multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and composer, Michael Gungor, along
with his wife, Lisa, lead this fresh musical collective. Gungor creates
experimental, honest and really excellent music. A deluxe edition of their
latest album, I Am Mountain, is to be released on 8th July.
It is tricky to 'label' Gungor's music as one certain
genre. In fact, I don't think Alternative Rock encompasses the array of
stylistic choices that can be heard in their compositions. I Am
Mountain is a journey. The songs on this album are all so unique
and stimulating, ranging from vibrant and uplifting to slow and sombre pieces.
I Am Mountain may not advocate outright
Christian lyrics but after listening to the songs, I would say that the
excellence with which the album has been created is a form of worship.
The songs are so beautiful and so different and the lyrics really
describe the deeper subtleties and beauty of a relationship with God.
