I know the inescapable passion of the soul that drives Asphodel Wine. Sarah and Zachary, members of SubRosa and Minsk, met while on tour with Cult of Luna, and the two felt a creative spark which quickly turned into a raging bonfire that they stepped into to create this unique and moving project. I know it because Sean and I haven’t stopped creating since the first week we spent together 15 years ago. Their new album of dark love songs, Slowdance Macabre, comes out on October 30th via Consouling Sounds – pre-order it here. We’re excited to be sharing their captivating track “The Worst Way” with you today, and you can feel the passion and blood dripping off this song. It’s heavy like to energetic roots we shoot into the ground and light like the thoughts we send out into the universe! Play this ominous and captivating love song for your cosmic counterpart…
As the candlelit musical polar contrast to “Romanticide,” “The Worst Way” is the sonic fire-dance on the curves of flesh. A roaring declaration of fire and desire, as well as a foreshadower of the archivism of sensualism and cynicism yet to unfold from Asphodel Wine.
