Weatherday & Asian Glow - Weatherglow EP

Weatherday & Asian Glow - Weatherglow.

The coming together of Sweden's Weatherday and South Korea's Asian Glow was a partnership that the internet knew it wanted, needed, and eventually, have received. 'Come In', Weatherday's 2019 debut, turned heads with it's fresh and strangely eclectic feel. In a similarly different way, 'Cull Ficle', Asian Glow's 2021 debut, managed a shy, subdued storm akin to The Microphones and Phil Elverum's distant soul. Both albums being aesthetically dense in their scope of musical ideas, their joining was always on the cards. Wholly immersive worlds link up on Weatherglow. Two shining talents tap in to each others creative, flowing faucets.

Tinged with experimental trinkets, Weatherglow is over-flowing with fine details and oddball ways of breathing life into its own being. Quite mad in their overall poignancy, the duo muster up a meeting not too far off of batshit crazy. Typical structure - as with most math-y rock type material - and convention are thrown out the window, leaving enough room for something effortlessly, or not so effortlessly, pulled from an ideas smoldering essence. No fluff. No filler. Core heat. Nothing less. Performing left of center requires sight from somewhat angled eyes and minds. Weatherglow is a partnership which offers your wildest dreams amidst reality. Blink twice and it'll pass you by.

Make things for you because you want to. Desire dies a horrible death in the hands of others. Forget the audience exists. An understanding of adorned respect flourishes from this space. A space of unrivalled joy and, as you can probably tell, ecstatic output of a unique nature. Not necessarily ecstatic in a joyful sense, moreso in a fulfilled and on the edge of transcendence sense. Creativity receives the nourishment it requires from the want to make, not the need. Force kills creativity. Don’t think, just do.
