Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded during a deeply intimate performance, David Tibet pares back the sprawling avant-folk orchestrations of his typical live ensembles for a profoundly stripped-down aesthetic. Relying primarily on piano and his unmistakable, apocalyptic vocal delivery, the album presents raw, emotionally devastating reinterpretations of his extensive esoteric catalog.
