Album Of The Day: Sojourner by Future Of Forestry

Album Art of Future Of Forestry's Sojourner album - A photo that looks to be taken from a space ship or space station orbiting Earth. The blue curve of Earth fills much of the background and in the foreground is the space station/ship. In one spot near the middle a person in a space suit is sitting inside a hatch with a red helmet, looking away from the camera towards Earth. There's a black border around the photo's edge.

Released today, this is the seventh non-Christmas album by rock/pop band Future Of Forestry, also known as Eric Owyoung. Like many of his previous albums, this is full of love songs, sometimes to a lover and maybe sometimes to a higher power. The music is epic, cinematic-sounding pop/rock with swelling guitars and piano, while Eric's vocals soar over these music beds. As the album artwork alludes to, many of these songs have a space exploration theme though they also are certainly also rooted on Earth too. The final track, "Supply", features vocals from Tenielle Neda as well. This is the first album from Future Of Forestry in over five years and it is well worth the wait. I will have to listen to it a few more times to really decide how it stacks up to their other releases, all of which are good.
