Loneliness – Loneliness (of Mine)
Those who have taste of The Angelic Process and lovesliescrushing, this dark ambient/black metal EP from the duo from Richmond, VA will never disappoint your desires
A couple of gnarly ghosts (Mitchie S. and Rachel L.) have formed into Loneliness, rising weightlessly from their graves in the lands of Richmond, Virginia. They have come to haunt us with their new EP called Loneliness (of Mine).
It begins with “A week of blushing//weak from gushing (we fall like the rain)” where the dark ambient drone clouds close the light around us and then the fog closes in on us until we cannot see in the dark. The second half then begins with this nasty rainstorm of a merciless tornado of guitars and agonizing screams while an angelic female power desperately tries to protect us from it.
Then we follow the end of “it was just the last moment like that” with those really sweet gothic organs taking the lead of the song, accompanied once again by that last torture of distortion and screams before it all fades to silence. Surprisingly, this duo is pretty much a nod to The Angelic Process, lovesliescrushing, Dark Ambient and a few more. Loneliness is surprisingly one of the rare discoveries of 2016.
