I think the new A Light Within demo single is going to surprise people who followed the band this far. The new material the band is currently working on will be released piece by piece as singles marked as "demos".

Don't let this fool you. The quality is top notch there is nothing sounding bad or not outworked in this.
As I listened to the first installment called "Terraform" things overwhelmed me. A Light Within were well known to me for sticking to subtle and fine-tuned Post Rock sounds.
This new material comes around with brighter sound. It slightly blasts the ears with full sound tonality from the very start. I like the way the drums are presented this time. They are coming more to the point and sound thicker than before without destroying the structures.
But don't worry, the new noise isn't all just about change. It's also keeping tradition. It still has these vibe that incites your imagination. Sometimes it's a bit ghostly, other times it's a bit spacy. Other moments I had to think of space travel and maybe this is how things sound when you explore outer space.
Make sure to close your eyes once in a while and let your mind drift away. A Light Within have created sounds that help you to go to places unknown.
The vocals come further to the front and take more space and volume than ever before. Same goes for the melodies. They prefer to travel through the whole track duration. At the same time things morph and change so in the end there's change.
All in all it has become a more direct and content filled soundscape. Make sure to take a listen.
As a alternative you can also listen to "Terraform" on Spotify and maybe recommend it to your friends.
