The Silja Symphony

at the close of every day

Fragile slowcore centered on maritime loss. Hushed vocals and skeletal piano arrangements create a heavy, waterlogged atmosphere of profound grief.

February 1, 2004 · Volkoren

A profound, waterlogged grief that feels both ancient and deeply personal.
