6. Flowers for Bodysnatchers – “Aokigahara”

Simon Heath: “This album is oddly outside the genre of dark ambient and inside it at the same time, the tracks often evolve from sadness and beauty to droney darkness and back in just a few minutes. It is the album of the year that is the hardest to just put on in the background, this piece of work is exciting and demands your attention.”

Flowers for Bodysnatchers is a project by Duncan Ritchie who went solo in 2010 after the industrial dark ambient duo The Rosenshoul went into hibernation. While the first album “S O L A R I S” was self released, it was Cryo Chamber who picked up the 2nd album “Aokigahara”.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
