Hollow Halo

Lonely Night (demo)

Written by Euros Childs of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci and Dave Cloud, with Euros Childs on Keys. It's hard to believe a more suitable subject for Dave to work with...Women? Surely not.


Dave Cloud & the Gospel of Power - Before I Give You Up

the grave of Leonard Bernstein is located at the tallest natural point of Brooklyn, NY. a small bench etched with his surname is covered in stones left by reverent visitors. small shrubs surround the bench where many small and singing insects find shelter.
a restless dawn led me to this site with a loved one in mind. with only the occasional groundskeeper in sight the morning felt so quiet, so removed from the city and yet the sounds are so full.
low drones from nearby riding lawnmowers
oscillate with aircraft overhead.
a city washes night from it's face with back-up truck alarms and emergency sirens claiming the day.
the crickets teach me rhythms, polyrhythms, and persistence. 
the gravestone teaches me impermanence, patience and listening. 
  
this is a recording from that bench at 8:04am on the morning of September 18, 2019

Dream Within A Dream

About 'Too Numb to Know' (out 9/25) by Profligate

'Too Numb to Know' showcases Profligate continuing to shirk the heavy electronics of his early years for razor sharp pop. On 2018's 'Somewhere Else,' Noah Anthony delivered dark pop gems while adding live instrumentations, reinvigorating his songwriting and sonic palette. This new song-driven approach gained praise from Resident Advisor, Pitchfork, Bandcamp Daily and The Wire, exposing Profligate to new listeners.

'Too Numb to Know' followed Anthony from coast to coast, as he recorded his first demos in Philadelphia and then moved to Los Angeles, a city he found creatively challenging and emotionally depleting. After the theft of his computer—and with it the work he'd done on 'TNTK' in L.A.—Anthony took a friend's suggestion and moved to Cleveland, Ohio, where he finished the album and added contributions from allies like Matchess, Lazy Magnet, Gel Set, and Missions, among others.

'TNTK' is about growth, reflection and change. Lead single "Hang Up" urges the artist’s younger self to trust his instincts during chaos. Its message pairs with bright keyboards, a pulsing beat, and soft, alluring vocals - on the chorus, he croons "Nothing you create but love penetrates." It's an urgent, driving pop song that fuses electronics with guitar and bass like the best of alternative radio. Guitar is prevalent on 'TNTK,' building on the live bass of 'Somewhere Else,' adding a new arrow to Anthony’s quiver, creating more space for melody, and using it to fill the room.

"A Little Rain" and "My Days" feature evocative melodic and textural beauty. Laura Callier of Gel Set adds graceful shimmering vocals to “A Little Rain” that wash the song in nostalgia, while the latter song’s weave of mostly acoustic instruments (certainly a first for Profligate) is unexpected and welcome. Softer moments like these are interspersed throughout 'TNTK' between kinetic numbers like "No Clear Way," while "We Can Punish" and “A Stranger” are reminiscent of his noisier, beat-oriented years. This varied approach and attention to detail are the garnish to an already tight song cycle that will satisfy hardcore fans of Noah Anthony's output and newcomers, alike.
