Tim Hecker ProfileLove Streams pulls at the heartstrings in conflicting ways that are hard to comprehend let alone write about.
Tim Hecker may be invoking the "L" word in the title, but there's an inerasable melancholy to his eighth album. If it really has a theme of love, then Cupid is horribly doomed as Music Of The Air and Castrati Stack cut straight to the core with fractured choral drifts provided by the Icelandic Choir Ensemble. Despite the use of advanced technology, Love Streams is a triumph of heartbreak and wonder. Get lost in this.
