On the sixth studio album “Beautiful Ghosts” Unreqvited has chosen to explore themes of love, passion and devotion through a kaleidoscopic sonic realm naturally focusing on luminous melodies and raw blackgaze nuances.
On “All Is Lost” the rhythmic section can deliver heavy dynamics influenced by a subtle blackened force while the post-rock flair will generate dreamy uplifting vibes through the elegant detailed atmospheric arrangements.
The darkened romance of “Autumn & Everley” begins with an eloquent piano piece leading to a soothing melodic crescendo emphasized by an ethereal atmosphere yet there will be faster rhythmic patterns expressing dismal feelings.
The cinematic mood of “Funeral Pyre” relies on rich melancholia infused keyboards arrangements and solemn vibes while guitars manifest a soulful melodic essence ultimately leading to a slower dreamlike atmospheric passage.
The title track showcases a vivid post-rock spirit as the composition focuses on haunting piano harmonies, calm atmospheric layers and heartfelt guitar melodies that evoke pure nostalgia but also a pale sense of hopefulness so the composition seems to leave behind the previous darkened tonalities.
It would be difficult to categorize the shape-shifting sonic palette of “Beautiful Ghosts” as Unreqvited embraces a familiar blackgaze vision yet doesn’t refrain from exploring diverse musical influences to convey authentic emotions.
