Myk Porter: guitar, vocals
Adam Boose: drums, programming
In the blackest night, alone, overboard and floating at sea. Throes offers not a life raft but a wary catalog of what lies ahead; A map of suffering at the hands of the sea.
⠀
𝘛𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘦𝘴 takes the goth-tinged aesthetic that Golden Streets of Paradise have established with prior releases and wraps it with an anxious new urgency. Subtle hooks touch a grey washed sadness while hints of influence from The Police, Skinny Puppy and Sade help inform the bands most unrestrained work yet. Recorded and self-produced throughout the last year and a half. Avoiding excessive digital processing in favor of organic sounds, live synths, and un-eq’d drums to craft an incredible new collection of songs. Throes presents the listener with a snapshot of a universally relatable sorrow, one honed in isolation, loss and fear.
⠀
The gravity of these songs is immediately tangible on album opener and lead single Heavy Hands. A short melody of haunted minor chords, stark and alone for only a moment before the rest of the album crashes in like the angry waves of a shallow lake.
⠀
