Track Description:

The title track from Zilched’s forthcoming sophomore LP ‘Earthly Delights’ is a modernized take on Post-Punk and Gothic pop music, featuring sullen vocals awash in layers of otherworldly synth that recalls Joy Division’s seminal 1979 album ‘Unknown Pleasures’. 

Named after the iconic Northern Renaissance triptych by Hieronymus Bosch, ‘Earthly Delights’ is a redemptive narrative taking place in three perspectival realms and one in which Drallos finds celebration amidst seclusion and suffering. 

Of ‘Earthly Delights’, Drallos says “I was fed up with loneliness but didn’t want my solitude taken. Love bombing under false pretenses only sent me running. I felt as though I needed to reclaim what I deem sacred.” She adds that ‘Unknown Pleasures’ “is a touch stone album for all the electronic elements on this record, but primarily this song. The main vocal is still the first take because they felt sullen but strong which is representative of the song itself.”
