Adopting a collaborative approach for the recording of their third
album, Death Bells have returned Between Here & Everywhere, an
effort that captures the cross-section of Southern California’s shadowy
hidden interzones, outside of the lights and luxury.
The record
features nine new songs that represent Will Canning and Remy Veselis’
continual growth, as well as accompaniment by an experienced cast of
contributors on keys, strings, piano, and operatic backup vocals.
Recorded with Colin Knight at Paradise Studios, and mixed by Mike
Kriebel at Golden Beat, Between Here & Everywhere bristles with
immediacy and emotion, with every element tactile, balanced, and
elevated.
Between Here & Everywhere sets out to map the
potent mess of Los Angeles. Canning cites the “vastness” of the band’s
adopted home as a constant muse, and much like the city itself, the
album ebbs gradually from harrowing to hopeful over its 35-minute
runtime. The lyrics are categorized as “narrative, but not
autobiographical,” born of intrigue, intimacy, and a sense of “looking
outward.”
From the highly-strung blast of "Hysteria", to the
hypnotic rhythms of “Lifespring”, and the staunchly resonant hope
displayed in “Last Days”, “Space Without A Name” and “Eternity Street”,
Between Here & Everywhere encompasses Death Bells' most captivating
work to date.
Released Late July 2022 by Dais Records.
