Marissa Nadler – July LP Sacred Bones

**Ltd Silver Vinyl 10th Anniversary Edition

Marissa Nadler is a singular artist and her Sacred Bones debut July is a stunning achievement, a crown jewel of modern folk, as exquisitely beautiful as it is haunting. We are thrilled to repress the record on silver vinyl in celebration of it’s 10th anniversary. July has garnered praise from critics and listeners alike and continues to cast it’s spell, inviting new listeners to embark on a journey through it’s dreamlike corridors. The album’s ethereal quality and haunting melodies have drawn comparisons to the works of music luminaries like Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, and Nick Drake. Nadler’s voice, a transcendent instrument in itself, guides the listener through tales of love, loss, and life’s ephemeral nature. Recorded at Seattle’s Avast Studio, the album pairs Nadler for the first time with producer Randall Dunn (Earth, Sunn O))), Wolves in the Throne Room). Dunn matches Nadler’s darkness by creating a multi-colored sonic palette that infuses new dimensions into her songs. Eyvind Kang’s strings, Steve Moore’s synths, and Phil Wandscher’s guitar lines escalate the whole affair to a panoramic level of beautiful, eerie wonder. “An enchanting journey through the landscapes of the soul.” -Rolling Stone “Marissa Nadler’s ‘July’ is a haunting, ethereal treasure that encapsulates the essence of longing and beauty.” -NPR “Nadler’s songwriting on ‘July’ is nothing short of breathtaking.
