About Society of the Silver Cross

Seattle band Society of the Silver Cross's debut album '1 Verse' is an epic musical journey crossing over to mystical landscapes and otherworldly terrains, while playing with concepts of life and death, shadows and light and going beyond the veil. Songwriters Joe Reineke (The Meices, Alien Crime Syndicate) and life partner Karyn Gold-Reineke score lush, bombastic and ethereal layers of instrumentation with chant-like vocals at times. Their unique songwriting style blends east and west with dark, gothic undertones. The album features non-traditional instruments (harmonium, shahi baaja, dilruba, ghungroos), 12-string guitar, esoteric synthesizers (swarmatron, therevox, mellotron), Hammond B3 organ, heavy rhythmic percussion and gritty soundscapes.
