Life Toward Twilight
"An Eclipse"
|

|
An overcast sky. Clouds move past the glowing white orb of the moon. Sometimes languid swimmers on holiday, sometimes warriors marching towards battle. The moon stands, guardian or sentry, it stands and watches. Between the passersby it looks down on the cities, the lakes, prairies and fields. It looks down on the forests of young scrub trying to repopulate. It looks down on the solitary, old giants who somehow outlived the genocide.
“An Eclipse” is Life Toward Twilight’s third album, originally a limited release in 2003. It is the sound of confusion and regret, longing and beauty, calling to the listener to feel with it.

From Heathen Harvest:
"...a low pitch keyboard introduces that disturbing sensation of a ghostly haze invading the fields, creating a darker approach to the abysmal feeling that Life Toward Twilight's sound represents. Razor edge effects, delivering a cold and a metallic touch, help to increase a powerful fear and a morbid aura. Fragile and out of time, some kind of melody springs among the haunted sound picture...”
