Anthesis | Turquoise Vinyl

Founded by the highly talented Emily Highfield, Australian dark folk/blackgaze project SULDUSK released their debut album, Lunar Falls, in 2019. March 1, 2024 will see SULDUSK release their sophomore studio offering, entitled Anthesis, continuing where they left off with their captivating debut, yet musically more complex. The album will take you into a gloomy magical world where the Melbourne-based project combines a high variety of different dark and extreme sounds with its very own sonic universe. According to Highfield, Anthesis means bloom, and explores themes of grief and acceptance. From the song 'Mythical Creatures' or tracks such as 'Crystalline', to the haunting album title track, SULDUSK shines with dark folk, blackgaze, post-rock, prog, doom and even black metal elements - flowing together to create one very unique synthesis of sound. Emily?s voice is a strong highlight, impressing with softness and fragility at times, turning over to demonic screams in the very next moment! For the first time in SULDUSK?s young history, there are also male vocal harmonies contributed by Shane Mulholland.
