Blues for a Dying Planet is an album by Swedish blues rock/ stoner rock group Spiral Skies, released on May 18. A little more than thirty-eight minutes long, the record has nine tracks: Black Hole Waltz, Awakening, Dark side of the Cross, The Wizard's Ball, Danse Macabre, Labyrinth of the Mind, Shattered Hopes, Left Is Right And Right Is Left Behind and The Prisoner. An extremely powerful and impressive album, with amazingly catchy and sensitive melodies – exceedingly reminiscent of more traditional rock’n’roll –, the style of Spiral Skies is simple and clean, but energetic, creative, dense and highly original. Certainly, a masterful artistry that intelligently combines in a lucid panorama a wide understanding of peculiar sonorous perceptions, Blues for a Dying Planet sounds an instant classic from the very first moments, with its genuine and marvelous style, that feels as excruciatingly explosive as well as moderately restrained at the same time. 

With strident guitar lines that summarizes with perfection the accordance of its melodic rites, the album generally follows a very simple musical line, but with such an artistic grandiosity, that instantly surprises the listener. With constrained, but at the same time expansive harmonies, that obeys the sensible insinuations of its own creative impositions, Blues for a Dying Planet sounds like a universal symphony of innocent amazement, that softly revolves itself directly from the heart of the listener, at the onset of its own gracious illusive paradigms.

With a captivating beauty that invites the listener to comprehend the nature of its placid and provocative, but sincere motivations, the album certainly distinguishes itself by the simple, but profound elegance of its formidably dilapidated sonorous shape, that is abundantly charming, but without displaying any excesses, and gracefully sophisticated, but without renouncing the ventures of a refined simplicity, which makes this work a reasonable candidate for masterpiece of the year.  

Amazingly simple and pure, but creatively inspiring and fulfilling, Blues for a Dying Planet is a sagacious and vivacious work, that is ready to enchant absolutely all enthusiasts of the genre, whenever and wherever this formidably consecrated album is heard.
