News: MIDAS FALL: Ethereal Post-Rock Duo Unveils "Bruise Pusher" From Forthcoming Evaporate Full-Length

Scotland-based ethereal post-rock duo MIDAS FALL - Elizabeth Heaton and Rowan Burn - will release their fourth album, Evaporate, on April. 27th. Produced and recorded by Heaton, Evaporateshimmers with a dark, gothic grace, conjuring stunning soundscapes at every turn

 

In advance of Evaporate's release, the band has unveiled opening track "Bruise Pusher," a visceral display of ferocious beauty which alternates between Elizabeth Heaton's delicate vocals and a savage cacophony of guitar, drums and synths, manifesting a disconcerting atmosphere.

"'Bruise Pusher' is about living in a volatile environment, constantly anticipating the underlying tension erupting into something hideous and unsettlingly familiar," explains Heaton. "The song started with just a simple piano melody, so to develop the track we used a lot of guitars with rumbling, saturated reverbs and gradually added heavy synths to create textured, expansive choruses."

MIDAS FALL's Evaporate will be released worldwide by Monotreme Records on April 27th on CD and digital formats, as well as a limited pressing of 500 LPs on 180-gram vinyl (200 black and 300 clear blue/black).

Combining elements of electronica, post-rock, and alternative with progressive and gothic undertones, MIDAS FALL has over the course of their existence carved a distinctive and captivating sound, creating taut, shimmering soundscapes led by the hauntingly melancholic vocals of Elizabeth Heaton - a sound described as, "powerful yet fragile, devastatingly beautiful and beautifully devastating" (The Founder Magazine).
