We are excited to unveil yet another preview from the upcoming Viviankrist 4 x cassette tape boxset that sees light of day this November.
'3am' absorbs the listener into the peculiar and disquieting realm of suspended consciousness, where the body and mind surrender and feel separated in the heavy midst of sleep paralysis and false awakenings. Nocturnal fear, mystery and confusion unite and lullabies cease to soothe.
Heavy Sleep , inspired by the period between falling into slumber to re-awakening, materialised in the early Spring of 2019. Initially harkening to a droning, eerie atmosphere, the album travels through lullaby fogginess and captures the perplexing aura of vivid dreams. Tormenting hellish nightmares, perennial insomnia & the scraping and pulsating essence of an over-active mind imprisoned inside the despairing, paralytic body are further encapsulated within the album.
Where time feels claustrophobically endless, Heavy Sleep takes us on a psych-entrancing, paradoxical and affective journey through the hazy, surreal domain of altered consciousness, achieved wholly by synthesizer overdubs.
