Glacia by Western Jaguar
"Glacia" In The Press:
"Glacia seems like an auditory diary: personal, and full of... human emotion, mak(ing) this record so easy to connect with." - Martin Castro, The Cascade News
"Glacia is a very haunting, self-reflective album of Trainor’s darkest emotions. The whole album is a very cohesive work of intrinsic thoughts combined great atmospheric layers and eerie whispering vocals" - Josh Pineda, IndieBeat
“(Western Jaguar) has managed to chisel out a musical niche of his own, while drawing heavy influence from an array of folk-inspired indie rock/experimental ambient bands. “Glacia” itself is a delicate and intricate album… - Chris Romans, Hear The Indie
""Glacia is (a) dark, harrowing album" - Kier-Christer Junos, Red On Black Music, Kwantlen Chronicle
"Western Jaguar is someone to be admired, as he has created a whole new realm of music" - Emma Beaumont, On The Come Up TV
"(Western Jaguar) remains comfortably strapped into the sonic palette he has painted in the foggy landscape Western Jaguar was born out of." - Daniel Finfer, Ancient Lasers
"Songs with variance, with swells, with composition changes, (are all) reflected... within “Glacia’s” six tracks." - Vincent Pauwels, backstagetour.co
" ...the overall composition is very strong and unassumingly anthemic." - Strange/Quiet/Loud
"Just lean back and enjoy this music!" - Sound Locater
"this album seems to be made for (winter). The slighty mysterious edge makes it unique." - Vanessa, house in the sand
Entirely recorded in his home with limited equipment, “Glacia” marked the arrival of “Western Jaguar.” Featuring 6 songs that span several genres and influences, “Glacia” is an honest presentation of Trainor’s abilities as a producer and writer. The album’s lead single “Karoo Mammals” has been featured by Rex Manning Day Music Blog as well as being included in the 5th volume of the indie cassette players compilation of independent indie tracks.
