Dead Can Dance - Within the Realm of the Dying Sun (LP)

Add to Cart

With Dead Can Dance now firmly centred round the core of Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard, they released their third LP Within the Realm of a Dying Sun in the Summer of 1987, showing both a continued maturity in their sound and rise in their popularity. Recorded during an intense period of musical and personal growth for the band, the album's eight songs are split equally between the duo with the first half being sung by Brendan and the second Lisa. At the time, Q Magazine described the record as combining "superb voice, ethereal church choirs, sweeping strings and a brochure of ethnic music: Middle Eastern, Indian, Moorish, anywhere but London's East End where the couple resided."
