Gatefold LP (180g vinyl, violet) incl. Printed inner sleeve and protection sleeve. Canada's Unreqvited has been a musical proving ground that defied categorization right away, thus being a perfect addition to our roster. With a highly acclaimed back catalog that was assembled only within the last few years, it is easy to imagine that this prodigious artist will get very far in the future. Two years after his 2016 debut InchDisquietInch, which had married black melancholy with electronic opulence, both InchStars Wept To The SeaInch and InchMosaic IInch showed different tacks, delving into the cosmos and orchestra pit respectively. For Unreqvited's fourth full-length the artist envisioned a sequel to InchMosaic I,Inch which served as Inchan outlet for all of the joy, euphoria and passion I felt over the course of one year. This album now contains the ire, misery and anxiety in between, making it my darkest, most daring to date.Inch

Gatefold LP (180g vinyl, transparent curacao) incl. Printed inner sleeve, bonus track and protection sleeve. Depressive and uplifting; a journey of massive peaks and bottomless caves. Unreqvited's take on post black metal is one that paints a canvas of musical diversity, with elements of expansive post-rock, tortured dsbm vocals, shimmering blackgaze melodies and grandiose orchestral segments. With their debut LP InchDisquietInch, Unreqvited lays down the foundation for their somber, melancholic sound by using hallmark principles of black metal like torrential blast beats and tremolo sparingly. Instead, opting for emphasis on melodies and synthesizers to invoke thoughts of frozen woodlands and a troubled internal state. Including an exclusive, yet unreleased bonus track.
