Ben Seretan- Allora

Ben Seretan's Allora, a record burned onto tape in a Venetian farmhouse in the wake of heartbreak and Mediterranean heat, is as alive with riotous abandon as it is suffused with shared grief and sudden, unexpected tenderness. Here, "heart grenade" passions and communal thunder find their most vivid, sacred footing, with each track marching crookedly but triumphantly from unspeakable loss to a rare sort of beauty.
