Our Take

In their latest offering, "Orchids Grew Herein," goth folk veterans Unto Ashes have crafted a rich tapestry of haunting melodies and poetic lyricism that captures the essence of decay and rebirth. From the mesmerising opener "Branwen Slayne" to the melancholic closer "Orchil," the album is a journey through dark forests and forgotten ruins, guided by the ethereal vocals of Michael Laird and Natalie Ray.

The production is flawless, with layers of instrumentation blending seamlessly to create an otherworldly atmosphere that transports the listener to a realm of ancient mystery and magic. Songs like "Lyke Wake Dirge" and "Moorlough Shore" showcase the band's ability to evoke a sense of longing and nostalgia, while tracks like "Wynde" and "Penny Dreadful" inject a dose of whimsy and mischief into the mix.

Unto Ashes prove once again that they are masters of their craft, seamlessly blending elements of folk, goth, and neoclassical music to create a sound that is uniquely their own. "Orchids Grew Herein" is a testament to their enduring creativity and passion for storytelling through song, and a must-listen for fans of dark, atmospheric music. So grab your cloak and dagger, and let yourself be transported to a world where orchids bloom in the shadows.
