"Tomb" is a deeply intimate LP by Angelo De Augustine, released on the independent label Asthmatic Kitty / Cargo. Across these songs, De Augustine crafts a hushed, confessional world built around his fragile falsetto, finger-picked acoustic guitar and delicately layered arrangements. The album revolves around themes of heartbreak, loss and the slow process of emotional healing; every track feels like a handwritten letter, full of small details and quiet revelations. Minimal percussion, warm analog textures and subtle piano lines create an almost spiritual atmosphere in which the lyrics can unfold with clarity and grace.
Sonically, "Tomb" draws on folk, indie and singer-songwriter traditions, yet it remains very much its own universe: intimate, close-miked vocals, tape-like warmth and a sense of space that makes the listener feel as if they were sitting in the room with the artist. The melodies are tender but memorable, gradually revealing their depth over repeated listens. This LP edition emphasizes the record's organic character: the sequence of the sides reinforces the emotional arc, making "Tomb" an album best experienced from start to finish, rather than as a disjointed playlist.
Angelo De Augustine is an American singer-songwriter known for his whisper-soft voice and introspective songwriting. He first gained attention with his early self-released work and further developed his sound under the wing of Asthmatic Kitty, the label co-founded by Sufjan Stevens. Over the years, he has built a dedicated following in the indie-folk scene, praised for his intimate live performances and for albums that combine poetic lyricism with delicate, handcrafted production. His collaborations within the Asthmatic Kitty circle have helped cement his reputation as one of contemporary folk's most sensitive and distinctive voices.
Asthmatic Kitty / Cargo stands for artist-driven, genre-defying independent music. Asthmatic Kitty has become known as a home for adventurous songwriters and boundary-pushing projects, offering its artists creative freedom and long-term development instead of quick commercial wins. In cooperation with Cargo, a well-established distributor and partner for independent labels, the label ensures that its carefully curated releases reach a global audience of discerning listeners and collectors. This LP of "Tomb" fits perfectly into that tradition: a lovingly produced, musically rich record for fans of intimate, emotionally resonant songwriting.
