The Eyes Of My Mother - Waxwork Records Vinyl Release - 2018
deluxe double LP in two variants on 180g vinyl
Composed by Ariel Loh, the score to The Eyes Of My Mother is dark, haunting, and atmospheric. Composed entirely on vintage, modded analog synthesizers, the score effectively presents a tune drifting, ghostly, and often beautiful collection of compositions that captures the lead characters psychosis and devolvement.
