Mariassunta weaves through 8 tracks of unearthly guitars, haunting vocals and smoldering drones that ebb and froth until the surrounding area is irrevocably transformed. Like its namesake, there are hidden nuances on "Il Vulcano" that coalesce to create an ethereal tapestry. Definitely an appropriate accompaniment for an uncertain world.

AFAR

i keep pushing them out
i don’t have to push hard

i can only be loved
if from afar
always a screen
or a veil


VULCANO

we pray the gods will spare us.

sample in beginning is from the film Stromboli, Terra di Dio.


FLOWERS

your throat burned when you spoke
shouts to the grey sky
we stood and held you there
a torch in the night

you don’t have to keep holding
we know you’re stretched thin
we’ll lay down the flowers
and the gasoline


the world should be burned
to the ground for her
the world should be burned
to the ground for her

i offer this wine
and pour out my hands
it’s gonna take time
to rebuild again


COME OVER

RIP Aaliyah.


SLASH AND BURN

and I stay here
and haunt some old house
and i pace round
i’m the one who’s a ghost

and they all
pass thru me

but if i go
if i burn it down
slash and burn
something might grow from the ground
