It was just Easter this past weekend, so might as well do their Easter album, Hail Jesu Resurrection. This has always been of my favorite albums by Vziel, three tracks (with the main being over 20 minutes long), of wonderful lo-fi ambient recorded direct to tape. The album has all of the common trappings of comfy synth, but long before comfy synth was a thing (and done much better than most comfy synth). The tonality of the instrument, slow chord progressions, and pretty melodies, make me envision a church in a sleepy little country down in the snow. It really is a wonderful ambient album, and being a Christian, I especially love the religious theme it has. If you're into stuff like Grandma's Cottage, then you'll love this.
