The Winks sound like what a renaissance faire might sound like if it were populated by Montréal hipsters instead of your friend's weird dad. Even when the music is in straight time it lurches like a waltz, and the tinny mandolin over top the rooted cello wouldn't be out of place at a maypole dance—though its more experimental bits might raise eyebrows at the apothecary. Ultimately, Twilights is a bit of fun that can also sweep into orchestral highs that leave a listener exhilarated, but it's generally a mood creator, a tone painting that abandons melody for sonic tapestry.
