Mirny Mine - Live at Visby Cathedral (2020 EN


I'm not that much into live music albums (mostly because of the sound quality tbh) and so there has never been any on my blog/ But it's different with those gothic-sensitive artists having gig in churches. It's different with those who are compared to Anna von Hausswolff. It's different with Mirny Mine who released recently an album Live at Visby Cathedral.

Indeed, a cathedral-based concert (not to mention the accompaniment by the Visby choir) fits this kind of music best. Mirny Mine, or in real life Anna Sundström, just like her more famous compatriot, makes an inspired gothic and dark pop, a real "cinematic journey into the darker parts of dream pop". Everything here is very dark, soaking with Scandinavian aesthetics, the artist's vocals sometimes sound like unnerving whispers (so beautiful in Wolf), sometimes it's spoken word, sometimes very on-point and majestic.

On the musical layer, it's dominated by monumental drums sounding like timpani that strike the stable, never hurrying pace. To top that, there are also guitars, occasionally more wheezing than not But everything is slightly different in the album's finish in Dream, tribal, mesmerizing and speedy ethereal dance.

Live at Visby Cathedral costs 5 EUR (56 SEK).
