M O R N I N G T I M E x G H O S T

Alison’s song Morning Time wraps you in the chill before dawn, evoking hollow desolation, then transmutes via trip-hop mysticism to a siren’s song. The track’s hypnotic groove produced by Esben ‘Es’ Thornhall places listeners in the shadows of smoke and dust, lust and resignation. Alison’s voice, defiantly cloaked in wrecked delusion, draws listeners to the razor’s edge of mutually assured destruction.

We used downstrum, stabby chords and syncopated passing chords to create an almost classic indie rock sound”.

Glimmers Shares Brand New Single “Dreaming”

About the song, lead singer, Maggie Schneider says, “‘Dreaming’ is a song I wrote about two years ago, and I am excited that we are finally releasing it! It is about liking the idea of someone, rather than liking who they are in reality. For all my literature nerds out there, the first line of the second verse is a Fitzgerald quote from his essay “The Crack-Up.” He writes a lot about the struggles that come with fame and fortune that the public does not usually see. I wanted to play around with the idea of appearances vs. reality in these lyrics.”

Kimberly Morgan York Exposes the Devastation of Domestic Violence in Harrowing New Video

“Taken from Keep on Goin’, “Numb” is a dark and disquieting look at love and how we often see past people’s flaws when our heart is involved. Over shivering guitar lines, York’s plainspoken voice, and a beat that carries us off toward the horizon, the song paints a portrait of affection tainted by cruelty and suffering. “This song is about loving someone with mental illness or addiction,” York explains. With lines like “let me go numb before you do / so I can’t feel it when you don’t care what you’re doing”, she isn’t talking about changing behaviors — she’s talking about survival.
