Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
Tragedy is as integral to the human story as every joyous starburst of hope and love and peace. It never seems so in the heat of the moment, when the brunt force trauma consumes our bones, but the pain is vital to understanding the human condition. Essex folksmith Infinite Fade Out, a producer and musician by trade, decorates a brutally griping tale of one woman’s devastating loss of her child with softness, yet never compromising on the emotional gut-punch. Gina Ellen lends her magnetizing and heavenly vocal cords to the story, the kind which evokes the calming hurricane-force winds of an Anne Murray ballad. The acoustics gurgle and ripple around her angkles, and as the folds of emotion wash over her entire form, she casts the broken shell to be lapped up by the fading tides. “I’m sitting by the waterside,” she calls, as a bird tearing its warble from its feathered chest. It’s a performance as elegant as it is merciless.
