Dumb mmmn I think that every time I think about something, it's the last time I'll think about it

Nekobibu I'm not quite sure I was ready for this.
It doesn't matter. I feel both at peace and disturbed.

about

The stunning self-titled debut of An Evening Redness is parched desert drone doom and the sound of thunder over the mountains. Evoking the hallucinatory clarity of the alkali plains and the biblical violence of it's literary namesake, An Evening Redness bursts from obscurity with a fusion of sounds that seem incompatible on paper but prove blindingly innovative in action.

Deeply introspective and evoking hallucinatory darkness, An Evening Redness' self-titled debut is the newest release from Brandon Elkins. "S/T '' is a masterwork of diverse ambient doom and post-ambient composition, with the minimalism of Earth contrasted with passages that wouldn’t feel out of place on Jesu’s ‘Opiate Sun’. An ensemble of musical talents including vocalist Bridget Bellavia (BLKTXXTH, Piggy Black Cross), guest soloist Brendan Sloan (Convulsing), and session drummer Ryan Jewell (Riley Walker and many others) serve to underscore the drama and focused production contained within the album's six tracks. What ties the whole album together is an atmosphere that feels spiritually closer to a film score than what you’d expect from a solo record. In his own words “I wanted to make music that sounds like how ‘Blood Meridian’ reads. Lonely, high plains insanity, sudden bursts of violence, longing melodies, ambient isolation.” Elkins' work has always been hard to pin down, but this feels like a culmination of not only the best elements of his many projects - but the compositional mastery that can only come from decades of refined craft. With the intensity of modern doom masters like Bell Witch and the emotional and musical dexterity of Neko Case at peak powers

Wow, Blackbraid has some serious power and some wonderfully spiky edge! This is a superb album - ethereal when it needs to be and really aggressive when it needs to be. Amazing debut. paulregister
