A contrast to their eponymous 2022 debut - a cacophonous musical reflection of revolution - their upcoming release is an exploration of spirituality, transformation, and the totality of the human experience. Leviathan oscillates between symphonic grandeur and intimate vulnerability, with moments so delicate that every breath can be felt.In this way, the sextet aims to demonstrate that the path to the divine is found through collective unity-a shared experience that transcends the individual. From lamenting melodies on a solo trumpet eventually accompanied by a dense, ominous synth, to hypnotic patterns on a percussive close-mic'd saxophone, to thunderous rhythm section grooves with searing horn harmonies, ALAWARI's  innovative and dynamic arrangements offer something brand new and unexpected around every corner. Despite being a six piece, the ensemble's sound feels comparable to that of an orchestra or big band, combining through-composed classical-influenced  orchestration, intricate interlocking parts, lush waves of texture and a warm, raw, intimate production style to craft a larger-than-life listening experience. Leviathan embarks on a profound journey, capturing the divine and spiritual forces that permeate the arts. The album serves as a vessel-slowly navigating like a majestic ship or a steadfast train, embarking on a peaceful yet powerful crusade.  It invites listeners to traverse a landscape of sorrow and joy, pain and exaltation, silence and intensity.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54454267347329,"sku":"2487420","price":23.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/5709498113814.jpg?v=1751629252","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2487420","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
