All good things come to an end. In this case, that might not be so true. You see, what comes to an end is our wait for Eleri Ward’s transformative, cathartic album, ‘Internal Rituals’. Out now, the record completes a rather long rollout, with singles such as ‘Venusial Light’ and ‘Float’ having found a spot on our pages in the past few months. In fact, it has been rather easy to spend good words for Ward’s work: “Delivering stunning melodies and angelic harmonies, the American artist is able to connect with listeners on a deeper level”, we previously declared.
We stand by such a strong statement. Packing twelve ethereal, evocative pieces, ‘Internal Rituals’ showcases a great deal of hypnotising pathos and theatrical flair, all foundational qualities of Eleri’s artistry, often known with the moniker ‘Theatrical Songstress’. Particular attention should be given to Ward’s lyricism, as she seeks to inspire and empower listeners, offering vivid and nostalgic storytelling with hints of hope and romantic allure. It all plays a role in making the record truly wholesome and authentic, a slice of gentle charisma and eclectic aural energy that’s hard to resist.
Delving deeper into her work, Eleri explains: “Promoting introspection, expansion, growth, understanding, and a wider perspective stemming from the self, Internal Rituals holds my artistry in every single note, lyric, and in the overall atmosphere. I hope you feel transformed after listening, just as I have transformed in creating it.”
