Five years after For Your Love, released just before the pandemic, Other Lives makes a masterful return with Volume V, an album as dense as it is ambitious. This fifth chapter marks a new era for the group, both in its musical scope and emotional depth. At the crossroads of a subtle Americana and classical or post-classical forms, Other Lives here invokes the legacy of great composers like Ennio Morricone or Henry Mancini to better unfold a music that is both grounded and cinematic. Volume V does not merely extend a body of work; it initiates a rebirth.
