Northern England based cinematic/ethereal doom act Darkher is back with the track "Lowly Weep" as the first single taken from the beloved doom act's sophomore album The Buried Storm, which has been slated for release on the 15th of April via Prophecy Productions. The video clip for "Lowly Weep" is now available for watching and you can check it below.
Darkher comments: "The first single "Lowly Weep" is a dark lullaby that speaks to the sorrow within. As with the death of winter and the rebirth of spring, it journeys from bleakness into a stirring entity of strength, renewing a connection to the spirit."
Darkness treads light as a feather. The voice of despair gently wafts through the air. Delicate pain wrapped in radiant beauty pierces the heart slowly yet without hesitation. The sinister yet beguiling images that Darkher aka Jayn Maiven paints with her ethereal vocals, guitars, and added strings conjure iridescent cinematic scenes in which it becomes hard to tell whether there lies beauty in darkness or if it is the other way around.
With her sophomore full-length The Buried Storm, the guitarist, composer, lyricist, and producer has clearly succeeded to even improving the beloved alchemic musical formula that was firmly established on Darkher's debut album Realms in 2016. Her mostly eerie and at times even outright sinister sonic storytelling comes refined on every level and with sharpened contrasts that reflect the ongoing learning process of their creator.
In the meantime, Jayn's long-time drummer Christopher Smith, who already contributed to earlier releases, live shows, and again on The Buried Storm has been added as a permanent member to the line-up of Darkher. Link
