We’ve been working hard on the first
run of Only Dust Remains on vinyl,
and they’re finally here! Now available
on our newly-soft-launched artist-to-
fan merch store.
We are honoured by the response we
have gotten since the release of the
record.
I would love to give special thanks to
everyone that worked extra hard on
getting this out of the door. Thank you
so much to @mechant_vaporwave , @rochelle.rochelle and
@precisionpressing for making this a
dream come true.
Link in bio!
HIS HAPPINESS SHALL COME FIRST EVEN THOUGH WE ARE SUFFERING drops this Halloween, thank you to everyone who was involved in the making of this project. “God Has Nothing” (2020) was a reflection of the present (at that time), “I LIE HERE BURIED” (2021) was a glimpse into early adulthood, and “HIS HAPPINESS” (2022) is a deeper dive into youth and environmental influences that go even farther back. This LP will complete this trilogy of albums, which were created in tandem with and as part of a cathartic healing process.
We're releasing the instrumental version of Only Dust Remains for Bandcamp Friday, a little something while we work on the next project and other things. 🖤🖤🖤
Happy 1 year anniversary to Only Dust Remains.
Thank you to everyone for listening, currently working on the next one out later this year. Thank you so much for the response and a big thank you to everyone involved 🖤
Montreal-based horrorcore rapper @backxwash has long delved into themes of spirituality and personal struggle with unfiltered, confrontational lyricism.
Awarded the 2020 Polaris Music Prize for “God Has Nothing to Do with This Leave Him Out of It” as part of her captivating trilogy, she has since veered into new territory on her latest release “Only Dust Remains.”
Featuring appearances from Ora Cogan and MAGELLA, the record awakens a new chapter of sound with ritualistic chants and fuzzed out strings.
Bringing an intensity that breathes, settles and transforms, catch Backxwash with guests on Thursday, June 18 at @commonwealthyyc !
Passes and tickets are on sale now at SledIsland.com.
