Watercolored's "Tears Of The Sea" is a haunting, cinematic voyage beneath the surface [Album]

Watercolored returns with a beautiful full-length project, "Tears Of The Sea," a concept album that pulls you under. Out now via all streaming services, the 11-track, 45-minute epic is a lesson in audio storytelling, drawing influence from the engulfing textures of Porcupine Tree, the dreamy melancholy of Mercury Rev, and the lush, theatrical splendour of The Divine Comedy. Helmed by Itai. The mastermind behind Watercolored, "Tears Of The Sea," is submersion, a plunge into an emotional void. And he makes good on that promise with a coherent journey that reflects changing waters of human consciousness.

You’re swept out into the undertow of sweeping strings, ambient synths, and reflective lyricism from the first bar in. The line, “You are in a small boat in the middle of the ocean,” from the track A Dream stays with you long after the song ends. You are alone.” It’s that kind of stripped-bare honesty that sets the stage for an album that's soaked in vulnerability and poetic metaphors. "The Sailor," a standout track at the album’s emotional core, gatecrashes its cinematic swells with quiet resolve, while "Ship" glides a sombre piano-led drift through solitude and introspection. Each track neatly dovetails into the successive, like waves smashing against each other, sometimes violent, sometimes gentle, always intent.

Watercolored constructs oceanic landscapes that change with each listen. The production is opulent but tamped down, allowing the vocals and lyrics to lead the emotional surge. "Tears of the Sea" firmly establishes Watercolored as one of alt-rock’s most interesting voices. This recommendation for lovers of progressive stories and dense, immersive sound images is a revelation.
