Product Details

Released at the peak of their powers, Into The Labyrinth captures Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard at their most self-contained and self-assured, each voice pulling toward a different mythological horizon. Perry's baritone folk meditations and Gerrard's wordless, ancient-sounding incantations feel more distinct here than anywhere else in their catalog, yet somehow cohere into something unified and vast. For fans who came to them through world music, early goth, or the ambient underground, this remains the essential entry point.

Digitally remastered edition of this 1993 release. Into The Labyrinth is Dead Can Dance's sixth album, one of their most successful releases, it's title a reference to the Greek legend of Theseus going into the Labyrinth to slay the Minotaur. It came when Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard had embarked on more individual personal paths, now writing their songs independent of one another, and on separate continents. Engineered and produced by Brendan at his Quivvy Church studio in Ireland, the album is an audiophile benchmark and also noted for being their first without any guests, instead they played all the instruments.
