Already Drowning, a song-cycle inspired by various myths & folktales about female water spirits, marks something of a departure for Aidan Baker. While still retaining his trademark sense of ambience & texture, the tracks on this album are much more structured & song oriented, embracing a minimalist post-rock, slowcore style & featuring a different guest vocalist on each track.
