Death Cannot Contain You

by Lunar Cult

supported by

Kirk Gauthier Like the score to an eerie dungeon crawl game for the Game Boy, this album is both exhilarating and terrifying. It will cause the hair on the back of your neck to stand on end, but for a multitude of reasons. An excellent listening experience when alone on a rainy day. Favorite track: Death Cannot Contain You.

j-kep Many dungeon synth acts struggle with making tracks distinct from one another. Lunar Cult does not have this problem. Each song is a gorgeous little mood piece all its own, and the whole is a beautifully haunting experience. Favorite track: They Filled in Their Emptiness With Sorrow.

Mae Shults like swimming in a perfectly-tempered pool of sadness. if you stay in too long, you may eventually drown, but you also never want to leave. Favorite track: Death Cannot Contain You.

A princess named Wuffles, adrift in a land of snot thumbnail

about

Defeat is only temporary.

All tyrants will fall in time.

Death is not the end.

The second full-length from Lunar Cult marks a change in sound, shifting from chiptune to wintery dungeon synth. The anti-fascist mindset is still present but this time the more personal themes are prominent, dealing as it does with themes of overcoming depression and a sense of loss.

Play at night and/or when feeling sad.
