Where darkness meets the lightness
Or rather the lightness meets the darkness
Before the sun is way up
As the room warms and I wake up
Her chest in beads of sweat
Each bead like morning dew
I blow a cold wind
Quietly across her skin
A few drops ran from the peaks of her right breast
Chasing after one another to her tender ribs
To that lucky sheet
Oh that lucky sheet
I blow a cold wind
Quietly across her skin
From the moon’s shadows
Where in it’s sunshine lid
He feels only her smile
Through the stars spaces
Where in it’s perpetual gift
He feels only her gaze
Between the clouds grays
Where in it’s nebulas rinse
He feels only her breath
Beneath the ocean’s cliffs
Where in it’s abyssal kiss
He feels only her lips
I blow a cold wind
Quietly across her skin
Fantastic album. Very reminiscent of 90s slowcore with an even more beautiful and dark edge. It's hard to find music like this nowadays but I'm very pleased to have found it. Jesse Mullen
A new compilation of studio recordings and live rarities captures another side of ’90s experimentalists Gastr del Sol. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 27, 2024
I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
