Last week, I penned a somewhat tepid paragraph about the album Transience by the band Church of Trees. I embarked on a musical journey, listening to it three times, with each experience yielding different results. However, I was compelled to give it another chance, and so I did. The fourth listen was the charm. My appreciation for Transience deepened with each subsequent listen, culminating in a newfound admiration after the fourth. This album, it seems, is a slow-burner, one that requires time for the lyrics to meld and resonate.

Church of Trees holds their services 24 hours a day. Giving is optional but deeply appreciated. Transience is readily available for your listening pleasure. You can find it at churchoftrees.com, Bandcamp, and the @churchoftrees2497 YouTube channel. And if you’re a fan of Everything’s Gonna Be Alright, and all other Transience singles, you’ll be delighted to know that they’re also available on most streaming services, ensuring you can enjoy it wherever you prefer to listen.

For those who appreciate a good deal, you can purchase the Transience digital album for CAD 13 or their entire catalogue, all 23 releases, for only CAD 49.40 on Bandcamp and save 50%. That’s a steal at just over $2 per release, allowing you to immerse yourself in the Church of Trees’ musical world without breaking the bank.

Anyhow, I ramble on. I recommend listening to Transience a couple of times if it doesn’t grab the first time. I might be a slow learner, but it really sinks in deep when I get it.
