█ █▓█ Few could deny the inherent, unmistakable grandeur of █▓█ █
█ █▓█ Johann Johannsson's compositions, and 'The Miners' █▓█ █
█ █▓█ Hymns' might just be his grandest statement to date. █▓█ █
█ █▓█ The record finds our Icelandic protagonist tackling █▓█ █
█ █▓█ characteristically difficult subject matter; the plight █▓█ █
█ █▓█ of the Durham miners as their industry was brought down █▓█ █
█ █▓█ to rubble over the last hundred or so years. Notable █▓█ █
█ █▓█ too is the fact that Johannsson's score is a companion █▓█ █
█ █▓█ piece to a new film from celebrated artist Bill █▓█ █
█ █▓█ Morrison (he of 'Decasia' fame), so already there is a █▓█ █
█ █▓█ feeling that a certain air of substance surrounds the █▓█ █
█ █▓█ album. Play this against Johannsson's clever use of █▓█ █
█ █▓█ instrumentation as he tackles brass for the first time █▓█ █
█ █▓█ since 2004's genre defying 'Virthulegu Forsetar' and █▓█ █
█ █▓█ we're left with a mesmerizing record, and one that █▓█ █
█ █▓█ could stand as the finest addition to Johannsson's █▓█ █
█ █▓█ canon thus far. The subject matter lends a distinct █▓█ █
█ █▓█ weight to the already emotive songs, but the truth is █▓█ █
█ █▓█ that the music stands alone without this kind of █▓█ █
█ █▓█ contextualization. While it is definitely cinematic, █▓█ █
█ █▓█ those chilling brass tones (influenced in part by █▓█ █
█ █▓█ Durham's rich history of brass bands) stand strong as █▓█ █
█ █▓█ part of Johannsson's singular musical vocabulary, and █▓█ █
█ █▓█ the narrative he tells needs little imagery to enhance █▓█ █
█ █▓█ its appeal. 'The Miners' Hymns' might be his most █▓█ █
█ █▓█ subtle work to date, and I get the feeling that he has █▓█ █
█ █▓█ allowed far more space and much more time in each piece █▓█ █
█ █▓█ on the record. These are slow moving, slow burning, █▓█ █
█ █▓█ brooding epics, and while they share stylistic traits █▓█ █
█ █▓█ with 'classic' soundtracks of the past there is a sense █▓█ █
█ █▓█ that Johannsson is more willing to allow his pieces to █▓█ █
█ █▓█ dwell in the darker recesses of the mind. You can █▓█ █
█ █▓█ almost hear the cavernous mineshafts and their ominous █▓█ █
█ █▓█ heritage in the brutal electronic treatments, and hear █▓█ █
█ █▓█ the creaking, crumbling landscapes beneath the haunting █▓█ █
█ █▓█ brass. I'm reminded of Gavin Bryars's seminal 'The █▓█ █
█ █▓█ Sinking of the Titanic', and if any body of work █▓█ █
█ █▓█ compares favorably to that classic composition then it █▓█ █
█ █▓█ has to be a good thing. 'The Miners' Hymns', simply █▓█ █
█ █▓█ put, is a crowning achievement for Johannsson. █▓█ █
