Phenomenally powerful, both visceral and funereal, and elegantly combining Charles East fantastically nuanced piano music with a mix of post-punk, goth rock and doom metal.

8 months after the release of the EP »I Am Your Consequence«, here is another fantastic showcase of talent and personality from Charles East – simultaneously gloomy and assaulting, spasmodically shifting from tender to desperate to furious, and again evoking all sorts of shadows to rise between the sparse and desperate chords of a lamenting piano, to then explode in fits of rage and anger.

The album sees the special collaboration of Eva O (Christian Death, Shadow Project, Super Heroines) as guest vocalist in one song.

Thematically, Charles East’s music addresses darker themes ranging from intolerance, isolation, and obsession to self-loathing and the agony of life.

Profoundly meditative and introspective piano/doom music for fans of Chelsea Wolfe, Diamanda Galas, Eva O.
