## Description

13 years since they first began playing together in their native Oklahoma, Other Lives remain focused on the search for audible clarity: their next expression, their next melody, their next rhythm. Rituals, the band's third and latest full-length album, is a pure encapsulation of the trio's relentless drive for precision. "It's more dimensional, it's more 3-D, if you will," Tabish explains. "We wanted a cleaner, brighter record with more movement and more color.

    Lava I guess
  

*by M***K on Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2015*

I don’t find this record “samey” becase Jesse Tabish sings a lot of Brian Wilson high voice falsetto with very ethereal lush production and melodic beauty. I wouldn’t say it is as gloomy, but that one clip you sent me is the most up tempo. The timing and sort of surprising drums strokes and percussion are marvelous and there are a lot of guest artists playing various woodwinds and horns. There is no way it is a plus to loose the members they lost, but I honestly don’t think the quality here has dropped an iota because of that, per se.My main thought all the way through is I’m listening to something like Pet Sounds or Smile, but something really unique that in a way, maybe Brian Wilson wouldn’t or could not come up with, although the influence is “there,” for sure, this is a lot more spaced out and ethereal than those albums, and whereas there are few Warmth of the Suns or Surfs Up, among others, "period," this album just washes you away with beautiful “music” almost relentlentlessly. This is really well played, really subtley played, and magnificently sung. I would really enjoy sitting in a good acoustics, small concert hall, and experiencing a live performance of this music. Man, for $9.99 you really get your money’s worth. It’s also a lovely simple eco pack that is nicer in your hand than it looks on your computer. It does plod, but then it oh so elevates, I’d give this one five stars.

    Definitely worth discovering...
  

*by S***7 on Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2015*

I hardly ever write reviews, and yet, I felt compelled to write one for this album. I discovered Other Lives only a few months ago by turning on the radio one morning. NPR was doing a review on Rituals, and I heard the last 30 seconds of music and the name of the band. It left such an impression that later in the day, I researched and found Rituals. It didn't disappoint. Sonically, they are the modern Monets, Degas and Renoirs of sound, painting aural impressions of life. Their writing is beautiful, haunting and uplifting at the same time.Since I first heard of them, I've been devouring all their titles. I can understand what people are saying about it lacking Tamer Animals' orchestral refinement. That album was expansive and cinematic, feeling at times like a classical orchestra concert (especially the nods to Phillip Glass). Conversely, Rituals feels more intimate, like a chamber ensemble. It also experiments more with electronic elements and balances the melancholy with more hopeful sounds. It's not a huge departure from their previous work, but it is a progression nonetheless. It's much less movie soundtrack and more Nils Frahm meets Radiohead. But then, I love that!This is definitely a group that's worth getting to know, and Rituals is a wonderful entrée to their world.

    Ignore the Critics
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2015*

Critics didn't seem to take to this album as much as their last, which seems strange given the level of craftsmanship evident on this release. The most frequent comment I have seen is that there are "no surprises" on Rituals. I personally feel that Other Lives has come a long way since Tamer Animals. Rituals features a lot of rhythmically focused pieces as suggested by the title. Despite this rhythmic experimentation, one can still appreciate how Other Lives aspires to classical composition. The strings surge and swell slowly in contrast to many of the more modern percussion sections adding a layer of texture not found on Tamer Animals.
