MP3: Piroth - When the night is over

Piroth's new album "Safe haven" eschews their Early Music charms in favor of better production and expanded instrumentation, a step backwards in my opinion. Now they're not much more than yet another Swedish sister duo. All is not lost though, there are still moments that shine through and the song "When the night is over" is one. Way more Woven Hand than sweet sibling folk, hence it is also way more interesting than the status quo peers. It's also quite sparse vocally speaking, a road far less travelled for the sisters Piroth and one that shows a bit of daring. Risk is good, it shows ambition; clean recordings are not risky unless they reveal a lack of talent and Piroth's technical abilities were never called into question. More like this please (but not necessarily exactly like this).
