{"product_id":"683950557642","title":"Kite: Losing \/ Glassy Eyes (7-Inch Single)","description":"Swedish synth-pop phenomenon Kite's second 7 inch since signing with Dais in 2023 finds the duo of Nicklas Stenemo and Christian Hutchinson Berg swinging for new heights of romantic desolation and baroque grandeur. They describe the A Side, Losing, as a six-minute empty call for emotional response. Stately piano and anguished voice reverberate in a vaulted hall, before gradually building into a widescreen anthem of synths, drums, and soaring vocals decrying the steady deadening of life and love: It's deadly quiet in your old heart \/ Are you there? \/ I see dark skies on the rise \/ And daylight shows no remorse \/ And I realize it is my life \/ But It's losing all meaning. Swedish dark music icons Anna von Hausswolff and Henric de la Cour join the chorus as the song cascades towards an ominous horizon.The B Side, Glassy Eyes, showcases Kite's mastery of somber, sweeping balladry. Hushed church organ elevates and anchors Stenemo's devastated confessional, swaying between resilience and defeat. The band describes the song as a reckoning with the privileged and existential anxiety of drifting through life dispassionately, contrasted with the yearning to connect profoundly with others and a desire for experiences that stir the soul before facing one's final moments. Like a hymn, the emotion thickens as it deepens, approaching both darkness and divinity: Deep as I go, nothing to find \/ Oh catatonia, I won't cry \/ Nothing can grow, everything dies \/ Behind my glassy eyes.
