Aarktica - "These Days Fail to Bring Me Near"

I love this era of Aarktica’s music. The opening from Aarktica’s new album Morning One, the recently remastered / redsicovered track is brought into the light one more time hightlighting the delicate interplay between Jon DeRosa’s arcing, shoegaze influenced guitars, acoustic melody and DeRosa’s soothing voice. From the press release, “On the original 2001 release, Aarktica (aka Jon DeRosa) explored ethereal shoegaze balladry and surreal ambient guitar excursions. For this expanded edition, three unreleased tracks from that era shine a light on additional facets of their burgeoning sound with cloudbursts of "beautiful noise" and minimal guitar drones.”
