The album follows a three-act structure – released as three four-track EPs – telling the story of a solitary traveller, an ambiguous red creature known as The Pilgrim, on a journey across a mythical landscape of eerie forests, stormy seas and unholy mountains populated by beasts, injured birds and idealised eidolons.
Living somewhere between Fleet Foxes, Grizzly Bear, and GYBE with hints of Arcade Fire and BCNR among others Tapir craft a beautiful and lush fusion of electronic, rock, pop, chamber, and folk instrumentation on this impressive debut.
