Product Details

Bloomington, Indiana's Murder By Death have always threaded gothic Americana through a live-wire intensity, building a devoted cult following show by show over more than two decades. Big Dark Love finds the band leaning into the cinematic sweep that cellist Sarah Balliet brings to their sound, giving these songs a weight that rewards headphone listening as much as a crowded club.

Big Dark Love reflects a different, bigger, and more complex side of the band. As hinted in the title, the 10 songs circle a central theme of love, only in this case, the oft-traveled topic is examined through a non-traditional kaleidoscope: the love of a parent for their child, the struggle between unconditional love and morality, loving to excess. There can sometimes be a dusky patina of despair overlaying glints of hope.
