Album Intro：
'Spires emit such inspired gusts of collective fire that they resemble a witches' coven almost as much as a band, their shadow-draped music seeming to issue forth organically from the soil like a sulfurous hot spring ... [they] invoke the unbounded, ageless music one might expect to hear emanating from the deepest forest, as mysterious black-cloaked figures dance around the fire ring.' -- Pitchfork '[Spires] navigate an empathic terrain that veers between acid-damaged Comus-inspired witchery and more mild-mannered areas that resemble Bridget St. John suffering from ergotism, or The Raincoats as a coven.' -- Dream 'Imagine if the Sun City Girls were played by real girls.' -- Jack Rose
Spires That in the Sunset Rise is an all-female otherworldly band from Chicago whose musical palette includes the spike fiddle, cello, bul bul tarang, various drums and bells, ecstatic yelps and cackles, and all manner of plectra. Their eclectic outsider sound has drawn repeated comparisons to Comus, Current 93, The Ex, and The Raincoats. They have toured Europe and the US many times, performing alongside such artists as Josephine Foster, Espers, MV/EE, Kawabata Makoto, Incredible String Band, Fursaxa, Black Forest/Black Sea, Bert Jansch, Larkin Grimm, No Neck Blues Band, Jandek, Avarus, Neptune, Charalambides, and many more.
