Tor Miller’s latest developing album is truly a setlist of songs for the soul. From his internally impacting vocals to his intricately woven patterns of sultry lyrics, Miller has composed an incredible piece of artwork.
While typically teens gravitate towards upbeat tunes centered around lucid chorus lines and forbidden love affairs, “Headlights” provides a much deeper and eye-opening source of relatable themes to all crowds. His lyrics “Headlights, casting my shadows, on the clouds behind me, free for you to define me,” and “With nothing else in my vision, how could I ever lose you?” open the harsh wounds of the past and allow in a new light of self-healing and comfort for change.
Similarly, the incredible depth to Tor’s voice and range, being a male vocalist, internalize every beat for the listener, making every song a symbolic part of their own personal lives. Every impact of a beat sends waves of power and emotion through the physical and emotional nerve system. His power is enlightening.
Lastly, Tor’s album is fueled through excellent indy quality. All aspects of an incredible song are reflected through alternative flares of sound, beats paired with internal conflict-wired lyrics and passionate voicing. Tor’s verbal creations are bursting with indy sensation.
In comparison to other emotional albums such as Adele’s “Hello,” many will find that Tor’s unique and rare quality of wording will outshine her surface level insights. For any who find themselves in the dim low lights of a painful situation, you will find the high beams you seek through Tor Miller’s “Headlights” album.
