"Mercurial Shakes" explores recurring themes of time, life, and environmental change, which inspired the creation of the album. The writing process was intuitive, combining old and new ideas to mold the songs, recorded in two sessions in the Finnish countryside. Drawing from post-metal influences, the album's sound is diverse and ever-evolving, guided by the band's desire to cultivate its own unique sound. IAmber's soundscape captures the beauty and alternative melodies within noisy post-rock and sludgy metal, evoking images of autumn twilight, the nameless dread of existence, the dust of Pompeii, or the glow of a secret fire. |
