I love these drifty, accordianlike, twanging opening noises. The album is beautiful so far... and it builds and grows and gains intensity, warbling... the picture on the back looks like a city buried in snow, which is quite what the CD sounds like... just being buried alive in sounds.
I Have Nothing consists of sleepy tunes for sure... perhaps going on a bit long for this sort of thing but if you just want a background sound to fall asleep to or something, this is it. It's choppy, lo-fi, a bit creepy at times. Just an endless sea of sounds. It cascades but the emotional bent of it doesnt change - always slightly on the cusp of something huge, therefore tense and energized. The subtle strings are very nice, relaxing. little country...
Song of choice :
For that first impression, I will say the opening track "Push."
