Portugal's The Joy Of nature have returned with a compilation which continues their mixture of experimental and neo-folk form their previous releases and this is a review of their self released 2021 ep "Goodies" which consists of unreleased and compilation tracks.
A very dark and experimental sound starts off the ep while all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them. When acoustic guitars are utilized they also b ring in elements of neo folk along with t he vocals being done mostly in a clean style and the music also adds in some ambient style soundscapes.
The acoustic guitars also add in a good mixture of finger picking and full chords while percussions can also b e heard in the background. The music also has its psychedelic moments along with the tracks also mixing in flutes and other folk instruments and the guitar leads are also done in a very melodic style.
On these tracks The Joy Of Nature brings in a mixture of neo-folk, psychedelia, experimental and ambient to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover darkness, nature and esoteric themes.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding compilation from The Joy of Nature and if you are a fan of experimental, neo-folk, psychedelia and ambient, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Knife Reflects The Smile" and "Glass And Smoke". 8 out of 10.
