| “This is the most personal release I’ve ever done. The theme is contentness and moving forwards, yet still remembering the darkness, the chaos.” – Mike VanPortfleet.
Budget Priced 2-CD set
Lycia’s 5th release is a 2-CD set that continues guitarist/vocalist Mike VanPortfleet’s dark vision, joined full time by David Galas (electronics and bass) and vocalist Tara VanFlower on two songs. Intense gothic guitars and spacious ambient electronics with an occasional hypnotic driving beat. Devastatingly beautiful.
From Pandamonium Magazine:
Moving back into more formal song structures, Burning Circle returns to true song-writing, and places equal emphasis on guitar as the electronics. However, the music is as intense and powerful as ever, conjuring up vast vistas of soundscapes which are captured in delicate webs of song and structure. Songs like “Pray” are positively dance friendly, while others find lycia moving towards the fertile ground of darkpop. breathtaking in scope and beauty, exultant in vision, exhilarating in sensory delight. Lycia have arrived.
