On CYRUS I: WEIGHT OF REFLECTION, Tanner Merritt delivers a sprawling, emotionally charged solo debut that trades the bombast of his band O’Brother for brooding, cinematic introspection. With sweeping synths, haunting piano, and moments of orchestral grandeur, the album feels like a slow descent into personal reckoning—heavy, hypnotic, and unflinchingly honest. Fans of A.A. Williams, Chelsea Wolfe, and Trent Reznor’s quieter scores will find CYRUS I a deeply affecting, immersive listen.
