Description
Tomb, the third full length album from Thousand Oak, CAs Angelo de Augustine, addresses lost love, the cost of honesty and the ramifications of regret. Its a deeply inward album but, like the best albums about heartbreak, Tomb transforms pain into beauty. This album is at its core a prayer for hope and clarity, and a prayer for love, says De Augustine.
The record is a significant shift from his earlier home recordings, such as previous album Swim Inside The Moon. It was recorded at NYCs Reservoir Studios with his friend and renowned musician Thomas Bartlett (aka Doveman), whose credits include work on albums for Sufjan Stevens, Glen Hansard and Rhye.
Tomb is a musical breakthrough for De Augustine, with Bartletts artful production spotlighting his increasingly impressive songwriting.
The simple strength of songs like Time, You Needed Love, I Needed You and Kaitlin will remind listeners that De Augustine is among the best of the rising crop of young, emotionally compelling singer songwriters.
