“The nine tracks, centered around themes of rebirth and renewal, are a sonic assemblage of swirling spectral synths, fragmented metalloid rhythms, silky vocal dirges, and cosmic effervescence.”
Glowing Dagger’s first compilation Beside the Blade ripples through a genre-vast collection of ethereal atmospheric bliss. The collection is forged by a mythical sensibility and cloaked in gritty vestigial mystery—each contributing artist manages to dissolve the worlds of myth and fantasy with gossamer sirens and deliciously haunting instrumentals. Some works probe interior, spiritual depths, while others prefer to float above (or below?) the world of the living. Snag yourself a physical copy of the cassette and be delighted by its inclusion of Glowing Dagger-branded matches, pink candle, and herbal sprig.
