Post Description

Hammock's fifth full length album, "Departure Songs," is their first double album and their most progressive piece to date. Hammock offers elegant soundscapes with majestic swells and crescendos. "Departure Songs" meets all of the expectations of a Hammock listener with the duo's mesmerizing guitar work of beautifully layered guitar tracks drenched in effects pedals galore, but it doesn't stop there. "Departure Songs" surpasses all the previously established bounds of Hammock. The mix of programming and drums, huge string swells and floating vocals featuring intricate and genuine lyrics shows the evolution of Hammock. And yes, you heard right—lyrics, a rarity with Hammock. Though this is not a concept album, the underlying theme of weather runs throughout the entire double album, beginning with "Cold Front" and ending with "Tornado Warning."
