I've been working on quite a few tracks during my SYG absence throughout the last few months:
We'll Always Have Halloween (Rough Demo) - A moody, jangly guitar-based demo with spherical backing synths. I was going for a kind of mid-80s The Cure vibe. Trying to rework the arrangement for a future release.
But In My Dreams ... - An experimental, almost Ambient or Post-Rock track with a backmasked transistor bass sample as its basis as well as tape hiss and a mini-kalimba loop.
Outrun The Night (Demo) - Pretty much baritone-laden Jangle Pop with synth backing. I want to return to this some time in the future.
Anthracite Veneer - A watery Darkwave affair. Looped acoustic guitar with consistent "crashing" industrial percussion. A friend described it as somewhat SWANS-esque. Can't deny some possible subliminal influences. Due to be released as a single soon with one or two B-sides. There's also an
earlier demo version with slight alterations in the lyrics.
