Angelo Spencer - Angelo Spencer - CASSETTES

2018 . Angelo de Augustine presents Tomb, his first album recorded in a studio and produced by renowned musician Thomas Bartlett (aka Doveman). A quiet heartache threads through Tomb. It's a universal feeling, the kind that piles up over the years and yearns for resolution. The 12 songs came together quickly, out of necessity following his first true heartbreak around Christmas 2017 - and while Tomb was born from this breakup, the album expanded to explore years of loss and disappointment. Throughout, de Augustine sings of his first love (InchTombInch), attempts to reconcile possible past mistakes (InchYou Needed Love, I Needed YouInch), and reckoning with how personal and familial history impacts present and future relationships (InchKaitlin,Inch InchBird Has FlownInch). Like the best albums about heartbreak, Tomb transforms pain into beauty. InchThis album is at it's core a prayer for hope and clarity, and a prayer for love,Inch he says. Ultimately Tomb reflects a beginning for de Augustine - both emotionally and in his career. It's a motion towards positivity, addressing lost love, the worthwhile cost of honesty, and the ramifications of regret. In the end, Tomb isn't about burying or hiding something away, it's about opening the seal and letting something new emerge. The album's title reveals these sentiments InchThroughout our lives we bury many dead things in our hearts and minds,Inch he says. InchThere they go to rest and hopefully are reborn as something beautiful for the world to behold.Inch Album Tracks 1. Tomb 2. All to the Wind 3. You Needed Love, I Needed You 4. I Could Be Wrong 5.

Toil and Trouble, the fourth solo album from Angelo de Augustine, exists according to it's own quixotic logic, inhabiting a psychic landscape as mystifying as a fever dream or fairy tale. The Southern California-based artist spent nearly three years working alone and exploring the expanse of his imagination. InchThis album came from thinking about the madness of the world right now and how overwhelming that can be,Inch says de Augustine. InchI used a sort of counter-world as a guide to try to gain some understanding of what's actually going on here-I had to take myself out of reality in order to try to understand reality.Inch Album Tracks 1.
