AUTUMN TEARS & ZERESH
Widowing/Possessing
This split album and yes it is split between two artists is an absolute musical masterpiece. It has elements of classical dark folk vocals combined with modern yet still dark folk rhythms. The music is stunningly hypnotic and truly a great piece of work. Both parts of the album are perfect together and together tell a story full of feelings and at times darkness.
The whole album could be the soundtrack to a cult movie it is wonderful to hear such an amazing album that is so different from what you expect. Do not let the words classical or folk put you off as these do not perfectly describe the music that you will embark on whilst listening to this album. Honestly it is an absolute delight to the hearing and mind.

Darker Side of Music
Neo-classical act, AUTUMN TEARS is proud to partner with ZERESH‘s Tamar Singer to present a split album, Widowing/Possessing featuring seven new AUTUMN TEARS tracks and six new ZERESH tracks. This split release is a meeting of AUTUMN TEARS‘ unique neoclassical arrangement and ZERESH‘s own brand of dark folk mixed with mesmerizing vocals.
Widowing‘s themes center on the loss of a loved one. the loss of oneself, and a journey to try and find either inner peace or to completely give up. Possessing‘s themes deal with obsession towards people, the thin line between love/possession and the lingering of dead or non-existent relationships. The lyrics for Possessing are taken from Shakespeare’s sonnets and the poetry of John Clare.
Widowing/Possessing is available as digital download and CD limited to 500 copies worldwide, including two separate mini fold out lyric posters – one for each band!
“Since I was doing this split with Tamar and ZERESH, I wanted to tap in to some darker old-school AUTUMN TEARS themes to keep in with a similar mood.” – Ted Tringo (AUTUMN TEARS)
“The songs for Possessing were written to fit in with AUTUMN TEARS’s, Widowing. Therefore they are more romantic and a bit “cleaner” than my previous works. Yet it is dark and gets even darker towards the end.” – Tamar Singer (ZERESH)
