Product Details

Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard built Dead Can Dance around the idea that ancient and sacred music traditions , from Celtic folk to Middle Eastern devotional forms , could coexist in a single breath, and live performance was always where that vision landed hardest. The Santa Monica taping captured them at a peak moment of that synthesis, stripped of studio layering and relying entirely on the raw ceremonial weight of their voices and instrumentation.

Released in October 1994 and out of print on vinyl ever since, Toward The Within was an audio and video document of the 1993 sell-out Dead Can Dance World tour. Recorded at the Mayfair Theater in Santa Monica, California, it marked one of the final performances at the historic theatre as it later suffered major structural damage in an earthquake in 1994. Despite being a live recording, Toward The Within includes twelve previously unrecorded tracks as well as material from their six previous studio albums.
