The Eclipse

by His Name Is Alive

__kla a patchwork quilt of bummer lullabies for the weary, estranged, and dispossessed. haunting beach boysesque pop songs interlace with layered soundscapes where electric guitars clang and shimmer across warm pads of synth and the occasional straining violin. Andy FM's voice is medicine, a tonic of becalming clarity. Defever's guitars weave hypnotic patterns across both channels. a couple of upbeat, blazing moments, but mostly a portal for contemplation and dreaming. beautiful. Favorite track: The Eclipse.

about

"unyielding, a self-contained world unto itself, surprisingly resistant to entry. language peeled from the throats of the choir, who hum an elegiac melody to a ghostly piano...the gentle kindness of Defever’s patchwork guitars, eclipsed by a rush of blissed-out noise"
Dusted

"almost thought to be a Bella Swan mixtape"
Pop Matters

Originally released as a limited edition ten disc ceramic box. Listeners were instructed "hold the top part up to the sun to block out the sun except theres a tiny hole, a finger hole, so you can see a little bit of light reflecting off the silver inside." The second edition was a single disc deluxe jewel case including a gorgeous ghostlike see-through sleeve and insert as well as a small circular spirit tool which passed between the disc, the booklet, and the heliocentric world.
