Mar 14, 2025Halo On The Inside is a harsh, often claustrophobic record that draws you into the emotional whirlpool of its sound and won’t let you go.
-
Mar 13, 2025A bold, nocturnal take on the folksy experimentalism that has become the project’s modus operandi.
-
Mar 18, 2025After the muddy emotional quicksand of her previous album, Fohr has found an intoxicating clarity that abandons orchestras for beats. Recorded mostly at night in a basement-studio, the album exudes the limitless, animalistic jungian energy Pan stands for.
-
Mar 13, 2025The study of Fohr’s internal world is cosmic in scope. That could make for an imposing listen, so it’s impressive that the record also stands as her most instantly loveable collection of songs.
-
Mar 13, 2025With Halo on the Inside, she again explores aesthetic poles—the clamorous and subdued, dramatic and restrained, tense and cathartic. Her work, including her singular voice, conjures the grand epics, the metamorphoses that the ancients whispered and sang about. Fohr is grounded in timeless magic, functioning as a modern-day alchemist.
-
Mar 14, 2025From a less confident artist, her writing might sound trite, but vocal experimentation is Fohr’s strength. The malleable and arresting delivery at the album’s core pushes the music forward, often reinventing itself mid-song.
-
UncutMar 13, 2025Her strikingly rich, four octave voice is the axis around which producer Andrew Broder has directed dark, ambient, degraded bassmusic, industrial pop and dungeon synth, with feedback and software fubars playing their part. [Apr 2025, p.28]
