Review by Buffy Chapman

Single Gun Theory's album, Like Stars In My Hand, is a mesmerizing journey through ethereal soundscapes and haunting vocals. The trio's unique blend of electronic, ambient, and world music creates a dreamlike atmosphere that transports the listener to another realm.

With tracks like "From a Million Miles" and "Man of Straw," Single Gun Theory showcases their ability to create lush, atmospheric soundscapes that are both otherworldly and deeply emotional. The album is a testament to the band's exceptional musicianship, with intricate rhythms and intricate melodies that weave together seamlessly.

The standout track, "Fall," is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases the band's exceptional vocal harmonies. The lyrics are poignant and introspective, with lines like "I'm falling, I'm falling, and I don't know where I'll land" conveying a sense of vulnerability and uncertainty.
