jhulud Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Bible Sea is the new all-electronic record from California's Hollow Sunshine, the duo of acclaimed visual artist Reuben Sawyer (Dry Insides, Florida Man, Blood Bright Star) and Morgan Enos (Other Houses, Hheaven). In contrast to Hollow Sunshine's previous LPs Held Above andBring Gold, Bible Sea ditches all semblance of a rock band in favor of disfigured samples, 808 sequences, and driving industrial percussion. A harsh, otherworldly musical atmosphere is soothed by Enos's melodic vocal approach. Enos sees the lyrical theme of this lush darkwave masterpiece as "spiritual weaponry" while main instrumentalist Reuben Sawyer says that the sounds are "cold and alienating, which is a good thing...the vocals remain sensitive while the music is buried in this digital muck and can't find a way out. Animal vs. machine." Sawyer says that the goal is to create new and refreshing sounds and take as many risks as possible, putting the philosophy of the band succinctly: "music has no place in the hands of safety."

IronPier Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hey guys, thanks for posting about and picking up this awesome album. A full stream of "Bible Sea" is up now: http://www.imposemagazine.com/bytes/new-music/hollow-sunshine-bible-sea and should be available in many US and European stores. SDF pre-orders from Iron Pier should be shipping during the last week in August or during the first week in September, but Bible Sea downloads should be available from our storefront now. Email us at [email protected] if you picked up the vinyl and have any trouble finding or completing your download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
