REISSUE OF A RELEASE ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED BY GH RECORDS, 2022 with new package and alternative artwork. Ecopack CD ltd.

« The ever sounding sea of grief » is a cathartic and spiritually uplifting musical journey. Partly abandonning the lyrical component which was central in previous releases of his musical project "Day Before Us" Philippe Blache introduces here a slight new stylistic turn. This album makes incursions within the world of avant gardism, noise ambient and modern classical minimalism with a subtle cinematic edge. It can be appreciated as a purging ritual mainly built around harrowing reverb piano key, blackened skies of droney textures, then majestic organ patterns within a foreboding sonic spectrum. Those lengthy tracks feature additional arrangements as spoken words.. "The ever sounding sea of grief" is a thrilling and colossal poetical/musical drama of overwhelming expressive intensity.
