about

Amber Ethereal is the third album in a four album series based on the times of day, with Amber representing the morning. It also represents the springtime, particularly in the opening section of the album, Chloe - a fresh shoot of grass. Beyond that however, the series also represents stages of self discovery: the first, Scarlet Ethereal, represented the evening as well as denial and hiding in the closet. The second, Violet Ethereal, represented the night as well as finally acknowledging and admitting to yourself who you are. Amber Ethereal represents the trepidation, yet also the excitement of what may come when you finally show your true self to the world. It has the fears represented by the aspects of the morning ("Nephelai", "Psychos" - clouds and cold, respectively) which give way to the positive feelings for that which is to come, "Elpis" (hope) and "Agape" (love).

Music composed between November 2016 and November 2019.

You can also find this album on Grimalkin's bandcamp, and also buy it on tape or lathe. Proceeds from sales of tapes will go to The LGBTQ Center Long Beach, and proceeds of lathe sales will go to Grimalkin's artist mutual aid collective fund:
