It's taken a while, but on July 15th, 2002 Boa Morte release their long awaited debut album 'Soon it will come time to face the world outside.....'
Here are a few excerpts from reviews so far..
"Distilling pure gold from ennui and pathos and creating a gorgeously arranged, intelligent and spacious collection of Americana melancholy, Soon it will come. wraps around you and tilts your head to the stars."
Irish Times
"Cork quartet in spellbinding debut...
Occasionally a record comes along that's so intimate and immediate you want to disconect the phone, get under the duvet and forget the outside world. Soon It Will Come...is one of those records, and the more you play it the more seductive it sounds"
Uncut
"Soon It Will Come Time To Face The World Outside is a gentle, soothing song cycle of enriching melancholia, deeply reflective yet never devoid of hope"
Hot Press
"It¹s a dreamy, gentle collection of songs and arrangements that somehow, and I can¹t put a finger on exactly why, possess their own spooky magic and, as you listen, become increasingly mesmeric."
Evening Echo
"Slow burning and hypnotic"
Pop Art
"My favourite jewels in this firnament are ‘Burn’ and ‘North Star’, the most engaging and sonically adventurous moments to be found amidst these twelve lovingly crafted tunes. "
Hot Press
"This is a refreshingly unpretentious collection of beautifully orchestral songs, where gentle melodies accompany understated lyrics to give us what will no doubt be the Irish album of the year. "
Zeitgeist
"what impresses is the way the band don’t seem to be doing much, but end up with swaying, melancholic gems that are so much more than the sum of their parts"
