Indeed, this piece of music has an introvert, esoteric beauty that masterfully enchants and brilliantly mesmerizes. Sondre Thomassen Thorvik performs elegantly and with a rare finesse all the instruments, amplifying his mindset and his inner concerns, creating a wonderful, charming tune. Raging Lines’ music and lyrics express unique emotions and set a haunting atmosphere, transferring us to a strange, mysterious, melancholic world. Every instrument has a significant role in a song, which is structured on simple, but effective song ideas. The production is clear and gives Thomassen all the space he needs to breathe and deliver a track out from his heart. Raging Lines tell us a music tale, which grabs our attention and picks our interest. Judging by this song, I can surely say that Sondre Thomassen Thorvik has many things to say and offer. “Let Me Have This Moment” puts a spell on us and warms us up for an even better tomorrow.
