TheArrow1987
I wish I had Walk Softly, A Dream Lies Here in 1994 when it came out. I like to listen to songs like "Swandive", "Light And Shade", "Placid", "Sleep" and "Sandman" while playing the Marsh Course in Lotus II on the Amiga 500 (nowadays with the WinUAE emulator). The Marsh Course has a very november weather atmosphere as if you were in england by a sea, same with the songs I mentioned. That would have been a great experience back then.

I love that some songs from the Walk Softly album (Swandive, Light And Shade and especially Placid, in some parts also Sleep and Sandman) have a blue, dreamy and damp atmosphere, as if you are somewhere in england by a sea in november.

this ascension is unique. there is nothing like them and trying to find similar bands forcefully won't work. i mean, siouxsie and x-mal has too much punk in them and this ascension has none. also if ethereal means feminine, soft, angelic, heavenly, dreamy, trancey etc.. bauhaus is earthly, hard, cold, depressed, tense, angst-ridden.

"TA has more in common w/ 80's new wave, goth, and post-punk. Stuff like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, X-Mal Deutschland, Bauhaus, etc." I totally agree. I can't find so much similitude with F&TM. And even lesser with TG, WT...

@ vidarth, PurplCrosswords - You're both right. That was the dumbest comment ever. TA has more in common w/ 80's new wave, goth, and post-punk. Stuff like The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, X-Mal Deutschland, Bauhaus, etc.

It's difficult comparing such different things as WT, TG and This Ascension. They are all very different. Even though I'm an inconditional fan of WT I have to say I also love this band and TG. As I said, they're very different.

I miss you Matt and Monica, it was such a pleasure being able to promote Tess and Etherhaus. It's refreshing to see something pay tribute to The Chameleons the way you guys did!

i suggest every this ascension fan out there to listen to speaking silence. they are not as instrumentally rich as this ascension but you will definitely see the connection. (start with the twilight world)

If someone could perhaps zip me up Walk Softly and send me a message, it'd be greatly appreciated. I can't find them at any distros and I don't buy music online. Just recently getting into this style.
