{"product_id":"kite-losing-glassy-eyes-limited-transparent-clear-edition-7-vinyl","title":"Kite - Losing \/ Glassy Eyes \/ Limited Transparent Clear Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eSwedish synth-pop phenomenon Kite’s second 7 inch since signing with Dais in 2023 finds the duo of Nicklas Stenemo and Christian Hutchinson Berg swinging for new heights of romantic desolation and baroque grandeur. They describe the A Side, \"Losing,\" as a “six-minute empty call for emotional response.” Stately piano and anguished voice reverberate in a vaulted hall, before gradually building into a widescreen anthem of synths, drums, and soaring vocals decrying the steady deadening of life and love: \"It’s deadly quiet in your old heart \/ Are you there? \/ I see dark skies on the rise \/ And daylight shows no remorse \/ And I realize it is my life \/ But It’s losing all meaning.\" Swedish dark music icons Anna von Hausswolff and Henric de la Cour join the chorus as the song cascades towards an ominous horizon.\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B Side, \"Glassy Eyes,\" showcases Kite’s mastery of somber, sweeping balladry. Hushed church organ elevates and anchors Stenemo’s devastated confessional, swaying between resilience and defeat. The band describes the song as a reckoning with \"the privileged and existential anxiety of drifting through life dispassionately,” contrasted with “the yearning to connect profoundly with others and a desire for experiences that stir the soul before facing one’s final moments.\" Like a hymn, the emotion thickens as it deepens, approaching both darkness and divinity: \"Deep as I go, nothing to find \/ Oh catatonia, I won’t cry \/ Nothing can grow, everything dies \/ Behind my glassy eyes.\"\r\n\r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ctable class=\"tracklist_table\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"80%\"\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"10\" class=\"tracklist_head\"\u003e No.\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"90%\" class=\"tracklist_head\"\u003e Track \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd align=\"center\" width=\"10\" class=\"tracklist_head\"\u003e Time \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ctr class=\"trackline\"\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"tracklist\" align=\"right\"\u003eA\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"tracklist\" align=\"left\"\u003eLosing\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"tracklist\" align=\"center\"\u003e--\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ctr class=\"trackline\"\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"trackline\" align=\"right\"\u003eB\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"trackline\" align=\"left\"\u003eGlassy Eyes\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"trackline\" align=\"center\"\u003e--\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"pop-o-naut","offers":[{"title":"7\" Vinyl","offer_id":57972333117814,"sku":"683950557666","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/4859\/4550\/files\/kite_683950557666_3330f63c-54f9-4f0e-8f3b-75a48ff906d1.jpg?v=1780316705","url":"https:\/\/poponaut.com\/products\/kite-losing-glassy-eyes-limited-transparent-clear-edition-7-vinyl","provider":"POPoNAUT - Ticket- und Musikversand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
