In September of this year, Alex Henry Foster released his second album of 2024, A Measure Of Shape And Sounds. The album is an intimate journey of its own, representing a profound personal breathe-in made of several layers of guitar loops, reverberations, resonances, and oscillations juxtaposed together to create a sonic multi-directional contemplative maelstrom. AMOSAS provides an ongoing soundtrack to that internal self-searching reflection, inviting us to lift ourselves forward, to tame the other bonding voices to which we usually surrender our longing desires for freedom. 

Today, as an anniversary celebration of Foster's 2018 album, Windows in the Sky, Foster is releasing one last EP in 2024, A Whispering Moment. The EP highlights the freely evolving nature of the song "Shadows Of Our Evening Tides" from its initial incarnation and its organic transformation through multiple live performances. 

A poignant demonstration of a deep emotional immersion and fragile sonic intensity, "Shadows Of Our Evening Tides" offers a vivid glimpse into Alex Henry Foster’s cathartic creative universe while standing as a perfect reflection of his enviable reputation as one of the most engaging, ferocious, and provocative bands to set foot on a stage today. The track also features a sample of Allen Ginsberg reading his poem "Song," a meditation on love, mortality, and the ephemeral nature of human experience. 

About the EP, Foster says, "I believe this very special project not only encapsulates the incredibly personal and intimate emotions that essentially express the brokenness of my heart following my father’s passing and my long belated grieving process, but that also became a singular element for friends and loved ones to find solace in their own losses before providing comfort to many people who would later discover the hopeful nature of a record that might appear or be shallowly interpreted as a sad and weary reflection of love’s impermanence and disarray when its true essence remains finding peace and purpose in our own bleakest times."

He continues, "And like most unambitious honesty and unselfishly-absorbed creative let go, "Windows in the Sky" would subsequently offer me the ultimate blessing to redefine my musical journey, and maybe, if not more importantly, to rewire my whole existence entirely."

"Therefore, I hope that A Whispering Moment will lead you to discover or rediscover the vibrant sensations of cultivating your life — of being truly alive."

The live video for "Shadows Of Our Evening Tides" and A Whispering Moment EP are out today via Hopeful Tragedy Records.
