Rope Sect - Enstrangement LP

Rope Sect - 'Enstrangement' LP

Black vinyl edition with insert limited to 300 copies

ROPE SECT return in 2024 to refine their doom & Gothic dark wave sound further with 'Estrangement'. Suitably structured for maximum immersion: twilit in every respect, each song stretches out to generous lengths, revealing a staggering sense of space that's sensual and suffocating in equal measure. Indeed, ROPE SECT return to those fertile fields of haunting introversion with just the subtlest hint of sparkle without losing their unapologetically lo-fi approach. As always, ROPE SECT underpin that sonic portent with thematic lyrics, exploring the thought why people (would) feel estranged and seclude themselves from society and form their own sect. "It can be seen as a reflection of all the ruins we are surrounded by," state the band, "the increasing reign of pessimism over optimism in a world that seems to have doomed itself as well as expressing a sense of not belonging and the connected urge to escape all this and live by your own rules in your own little world, passing all the warning signs of human kind going astray." The album fittingly / dramatically concludes with the pulsing resignation of "Rope of the Mundane Love," featuring guest vocals by King Dude.
