Within the Realm of a Dying Sun

Within the Realm of a Dying Sun

With Dead Can Dance now firmly centred round the core of Brendan Perry and Lisa Gerrard, they released their third album Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun in the Summer of 1987, showing both a continued maturity in their sound and rise in their popularity. Recorded during an intense period of musical and personal growth for the band, the albumâ€™s eight songs are split equally between the duo with the first half being sung by Brendan and the second Lisa. At the time, Q Magazine described the album as combining â€œsuperb voice, ethereal church choirs, sweeping strings and a brochure of ethnic music: Middle Eastern, Indian, Moorish, anywhere but Londonâ€™s East End where the couple resided.â€ The albumâ€™s cover only adds to the albumâ€™s aura of mystery with a haunting photograph of the family grave at the PÃ¨re-Lachaise cemetery in Paris of famed French biologist FranÃ§ois-Vincent Raspail.
