From the label:
"cindytalk has remained a majestic proposition over the decades, one marked by a continued process of disintegration and regeneration. change has been a constant for cindytalk, as has been the presence of the scottish musician cinder, who has fronted the project since the early ‘80s. the first cindytalk albums embraced a dark theatricality of post-punk dissonance and abject rock deconstruction that coupled industrial dirges with cinder’s beatific vocals, these same vocals that were once plied to the earliest this mortal coil and cocteau twins recordings, forever binding cinder to the 4AD lore. but even on those albums, 'camouflage heart' and 'in this world,' cinder was pushing the band to embrace the studio as a tool for further abstraction of sodden drones, cobwebbed dark elegance, and decayed textures.
by the early aughts, cinder had reimagined cindytalk through the granular processes of digitalia with a handful of equally celebrated works of glitch-born expressionism for editions mego. cinder explains that “those elements were growing roots under our sound and had started to organically change the shape of what we were doing. the fucked-up rock music was in retreat and the electro-acoustic abstractions were becoming apparent. fast forward to the early part of the 21st century and my first laptop. it seemed natural where i needed to begin that part of my new sonic journey. to further explore those and new territories. sunset and forever is intrinsically connected to what came before.”
'sunset and forever' is a labyrinthine opus, one that returns to the themes of the sacred and profane that have rippled through all of cindytalk’s recordings, albeit in various guises. the opening track “embers of last leaves” is a haunted piece of undulated, cyclical tones that entwine into a sorrowful chorale with cinder’s own voice. thumps of electronic drum kicks and bass drops dot the apocalyptic menace of “tower of the sun” but serve not as a rhythmic grid, but as painterly noises that further disrupt and disturb the machined dissonance. a cinematic radioluminescence blooms from the tempered electronics within “for those eyes, shadows of flowers.” the finale “i see her in everywhere” bookends the opening number with a seemingly human chorus build from electronic tones cast in cathedral reverence. sounds throughout may appear adjacent to those of fennesz, holly herndon, or even lovesliescrushing from time to time, but sunset and forever remains purely cindytalk."
