champainproblms 1,439 Posted November 12 why make an official resease for an ambient album 😭 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
domandapiano 12,098 Posted November 12 Don’t get me wrong I love ambient music! I listen to it frequently. I just love her voice and melodies so I’m hoping it’s at least a 50/50 split. If we get lots of Punish vibes I’ll be more than happy. I’ve never felt particularly compelled by the ambient stuff she has uploaded, but maybe that’s because they’ve never been on an official release and I didn’t give it a fair try. And of course she can put out whatever kind of music she is writing and feels passionate about. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrashMagiq 58,573 Posted November 12 I'm very excited for this album but I can already tell it's gonna create the most unbearably pretentious takes on people not being into ambient music and 10+ minute songs by people that desperately want to come across as cool and highbrow. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embach 42,295 Posted November 12 is the new album ambient music in a way that it's all 100% instrumental or the music in the slow ambient genre where she also sings? because if it's 100% instrumental I understand because the album wasn't supposed to follow the "ethel cain" storyline from preachers daughter if i remember correctly 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lakeemmahottie 1,595 Posted November 12 Some ambient albums that I think every daughter of cain should listen to whilst we wait for Perverts Narrowing Type - Good Night & Good Morning (Ethel called them the best band in the world, recently preformed a shorter version of Punish live with them, their music is all lively composed. 10/10 album imo. It's rich, airy and beautiful) Inca Ore/Grouper - Grouper & Inca Ore (Collab album by Inca Ore and Ethel's fave ambient artist oat; Grouper. Echoey dark folk) they are never coming back - Wulven (Dark-ish drone record, Ethel toured with this band. I Have Seen The End and It Is Beautiful was in her top 3 fave albums of 2022) The Body Lovers - The Body Lovers (Michael Gira side project following what was formally the breakup of his main band Swans. Similiar to "Soundtracks For The Blind", intended to be the final Swans album released a few years before TBL project. SFTB also is one of the greatest albums of all time.) The Winter Ray - Natural Snow Buildings (I think the majority of NSB's very long catalogue would appeal to a lot of fans of Ethel, this album is one of their best albums. Very cold and eerie. Off topic but if anyone wants to get into NSB's other albums I made a tracker for archive purposes that's pretty much got all the information on their albums. Ghost Folks is another recommendation I have for Ethel Cain ) Purge - Crystallisee (not rlly drone music but it's a very dark ambient album. like darkly textured horror music almost.) Against The Wood, Opposed To Flesh - KAVARI (Ethel is a massive fan of KAVARI, Glasgow DJ who does dark edm and hard bass as well as ambient. Last year she released her debut album which was recorded in the span of 3 days. truly spooky shit) If anyone wants more lmk! 2 Quote SOPHIE • ARCA • SKY FERREIRA • YEULE • CHARLI XCX • WILL TOLEDO • JAMIE STEWART • CHELSEA WOLFE • YUNG LEAN • ECCO2K • NATURAL SNOW BUILDINGS • EARTHEATER • FIONA APPLE • BJÖRK • ANNA VON HAUSSWOLFF • KRISTIN MICHAEL HAYTER • RICHARD D JAMES • DEADMAU5 • MICHAEL GIRA • LIZ PHAIR • LANA DEL REY • TINASHE • FKA TWIGS • DEATH GRIPS • SNOW STRIPPERS • A.

79lipstick 498 Posted November 12 that take is "pretentious" in itself. wbk her next release was going to be ambient and i have seen infinitely more people repeatedly complaining about it than others complaining about those complaining. who even cares? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest im not upset about the ambient tracks at all, i really like her soundcloud songs, but i do get why some people might be a bit turned off by them, especially following fom preachers daughter, the album hasn't really been marketed as an ambient record so i think the casual audience will expect something similar to preachers daughter and be a bit disappointed which i understand, the disappointment wont last long when they find out what a masterpiece it is though 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
