A very nice counter in mood to Cygnus. The song's notes describe it very well. Lyra shows that even as a stripped down crew, no energy, complexity, or fun need be lost from their music.
Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

about
Graham Costello with his band STRATA continues to bridge the gap between his debut album ‘Obelisk’, and his forthcoming album with Gearbox via an epic, polyrhythmic masterpiece titled 'Lyra'.
With the band reduced to quartet, they become a hard-hitting, rhythm section machine. Hypnotising piano patterns roll seamlessly into Reichian guitar loops, and yet the whole track grooves, with the bass providing pulsating sub-octave lines that require a good pair of headphones to truly appreciate.
Together, the musicians weave a narrative influenced by post-rock, jazz, and minimalism, continuously evolving in intensity before attaining its cathartic peak.
