Society of the Silver Cross

Society of the Silver Cross is a Seattle-based band that melds a unique fusion of musical influences, creating a somber and captivating sound that's not easily categorized. The duo behind this evocative project comprises multi-instrumentalist Joe Reineke, formerly of the band The Meices and singer-keyboardist Karyn Gold-Reineke, whose ethereal vocals are a defining feature of the band's identity. Their sound is heavily influenced by Joe’s transformative journey through India, which is evident in the incorporation of Indian instruments such as the harmonium and cinematic soundscapes that are hauntingly beautiful.

The band’s releases, including "1 Verse," which showcases their broodingly spiritual sound, "The Mighty Factory of Death," a track that weaves together intense lyrical themes with a compelling instrumental arrangement, "Kali Om," which pays homage to Eastern mysticism and musical motifs, and the double A-side single "When You're Gone B/W Funeral of Sorrows," which presents a deep emotional resonance, all contribute to the band's otherworldly artistic narrative. Society of the Silver Cross's music is a journey through shadowy realms, combining dark ambient textures with meditative rhythms, layered with a diverse range of global influences that create a distinctive auditory experience for the listener.
