The album is a study of contrast…a specter, a feeling, an unraveling of self through walls of distortion and funereal atmosphere. It does not merely belong to this realm; it defines it. The melodies, no matter how grand, seem eroded, stripped of warmth and suspended in a space that offers no return. It is weighted, ghostly, and drowning in a haze of reverb that stretches beyond the horizon. If shoegaze is often about staring at the floor in melancholic reverie, deathgaze is about gazing into the void and realizing it is staring back. It’s an exploration of dissolution, a sound that haunts rather than soothes…an essential listen for those willing to step beyond the veil.
