Wings Of Desire - Amun-Ra

From the ashes of the late Inheaven, who burned briefly but brightly over the last few years of the previous decade, rises Wings Of Desire.

Chloe Little and James Taylor’s first EP under the name – End Of An Age – was more inward-looking and introspective, whereas on Amun-Ra they aim for the stars once again, with success.

Amun-Ra is named after the Egyptian deity, the transcendental creator of the universe and the god of light, which should give you some idea of the subject matter included.

Exuberant opener ‘Choose A Life’ riffs on the infamous and instructive Trainspotting monologue (‘Choose a life, get a job, pick a wife, fuck it all,’) while covering the nature of friendship and self-love. Yet it’s delivered through a spectrum of gloriously ecstatic shoegaze on a summer breeze, the type of music to listen to on a starry summer night and divine in its majesty.
