Opticks by Silje Nes, released 13 September 2010 1. The Grass Harp 2. Symmetry of Empty Space 3. Rewind 4. Silver Blue 5. The Card House 6. Levitation 7. The Shades 8. Crystals 9. Branches 10. Hello Luminanca 1. While once again mostly home-recorded, ‘Opticks’ (the title references Isaac Newton’s 1704 book about the science of optics and the refraction of light) has a far richer, fuller sound than its predecessor and is the result of a more focused approach. Starting from scratch with an end goal rather than being an collection of existing pieces with additions and reworkings (as on ‘Ames Room’), it was made with different equipment and in different surroundings.

Type EP. Released date 2011. Optics is a young band that comes from Hamilton Ontario Canada, their styles are a fusion of progressive death with hardcore influences. Progressive death metal is one of those genres in metal where the term has lost its meaning or gets thrown around the place so often that not many people actually know what true progressive death metal is.

Silje Nes recorded Opticks in the same home studio in which she made the collection of demos that became her debut album Ames Room, but the Norwegian’s second album opens a new world of possibilities. Opticks manages to be more cohesive and polished, drawing on Nes’ growing experience as a composer and producer without sacrificing the delicacy that made Ames Room so charming.

Regardless of the tack she takes, Nes' music has the vulnerable freshness of winter thawing into spring-particularly on the lovely album-closer "Ruby Red"-and Opticks puts her in the very sweet spot between innocence and expertise. Silje Nes's second album Opticks delivers all of the above, but that doesn't diminish its thoughtful loveliness.

This album has an average beat per minute of 119 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 99/140 BPM). See its BPM profile at the bottom of the page.
