Aviators - When Our Bodies Wash Ashore (Bloodborne Song | Dark Alternative)

Download on Bandcamp: Spotify: Google Play: Apple Music: Instrumentals/Vocals/MIDI For Remixing: Let There Be Fire is a SoulsBorne inspired album after all, so I looked to Bloodborne once again for inspiration. This time, as a spiritual successor to “No One Will Save You,“ I’ve told another sad tale of unfortunate encounters with a higher power. Long ago, an unnamed fisherman hears voices beneath the waves and wanders from his decrepit village out into the Deep, to find ascension in death and to have audience with the mother of the ocean. “When Our Bodies Wash Ashore“ is a Lovecraftian tale of madness and unholy infatuation with the deep wonders below. It’s also very nearly a 10 minute song, so I may have gone a little mad myself.
