Episode 119 reviews, Divided By Design
For the Fallen Dreams Shell Beach and more
Kicking off the show this week is Divided By Design and the return of a new album titled The fear of being forgotten due for release on 10th February 2023
It’s always nice to have an artist or band come back to me and ask if I will listen to the new project they have been working on.
The fear of being forgotten is another instrumental album from Divided By design and to be honest I kind of always seem to struggle with these albums, what I will say is the latest offering from Divided By Design is nothing short of magical some lovely soundscapes of music are presented to the listener and offer the idea of going on a concept about the beginning of life, this journey is achieved by due by offering some brutal riffs and mind-blowing guitar solos. Overall, The fear of being is forgotten and is nothing short of amazing with these wonderful riffs and stunning sounds.
Go and check out Divided by design this one is a huge thumbs of from Setting The Tone what a mind-blowing epic journey of sound.

EP 118 Ville Valo Neon Noir review
Tuesday Jan 10, 2023
Tuesday Jan 10, 2023
|
I can safely safe if you’re a fan of HIM this record will not disappointment as their classics sounds and themes from Ville Valo, from cleverly worded lyrics such as the lyric is the forever lost (. moon dial up sun dial down) to soaring melodic chorus that will have you humming alone.
all of this is pieced together in these huge beautiful mesmerizing soundscapes vertigo eyes is the perfect example of this.
In closing HIM may have been gone for the past five years, but, it’s so good to have Ville Valo still humming and strumming on his guitar.
There is still such love for Ville Valo, the key with Neon Noir is it’s not a HIM album it’s a Ville Valo album
Tracks to make your hairs stand up on the back of your neck
Echolocate Your Love, The Foreverlost, Neon Noir, Vertigo Eyes
Neon Noir is the perfect offering of mesmerizing soundscapes 9/10
