Langsom Dans -
Danish/American band Gliss makes a huge departure from their old sound on the new record Langsom Dans which is gathering comparisons to Beach House, Crystal Castles and Lower Dens. The LA based duo, consisting of Victoria Cecilia & Martin Klingman, pour their collective musical imaginations into recording timeless art pop with a precise Scandinavian texture that steps away from their previous work. The 12-track LP features heavy synths and electronic beats with Danish expatriate, Victoria Cecilia, stepping into the role as lead singer. The passionate vocal harmonies dictate the recordings with stories of coming out of the darkness into a new life, bringing to mind The XX, Portishead and Depeche Mode.
This is a full-length from a band that knows their sound, and having toured with the likes of The Horrors, Raveonettes and Editors, they clearly have the credentials.
The album is released through Modern Outsider and is already climbing into the Top 5 on the alternative specialty radio charts.

Fade Away
Gliss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every time I kick I start to break.....fade......
Wait, what's your name?
Every time I sink I start to fade...fade away
When you're wasted hiding on the edge under this day
And we fade...fade away away it's your fame
It took all my time to break you
I was on my knees begging for the love
Wait, what'd you say to me?
I'm falling to the floor & I can't see you
Anymore...anymore
Every time I sink I start to break...
It took all my time to break you
All my hearts to waste you
I was on my knees begging for the sun
It took all my time to fade you
All my hearts to break you
I was on my knees begging for the love
It's a right time.....is it right??
It's a right tyde.....in your life....I wanna fade out fade out aahhhhhh
All my hearts to break........for your love...
The song "Fade Away" by Gliss is a hauntingly beautiful track that explores the themes of pain, heartbreak, and loss. The lyrics describe the struggles of someone who has been hurt deeply, possibly by a romantic partner, and is slowly losing themselves in their pain. The opening lines set the tone for the song as the singer says "Every time I kick I start to break...fade away... Wait, what's your name?" Here, we can interpret the line "Every time I kick I start to break" as a metaphor for trying to move on from the pain, but failing every time. The line "Wait, what's your name?" shows that the singer is lost and disoriented and is searching for something to hold onto.
The chorus of the song is where we see the title "Fade Away" being repeated. The line "When you're wasted hiding on the edge under this day, and we fade...fade away, away it's your fame" suggests that the singer is drowning their sorrows in substance abuse and is slowly fading away because of it. The phrase "it's your fame" could mean that they are doing this to escape the pain that their fame (possibly from being in the public eye) has caused.
In the second verse, the singer says "It took all my time to break you, all my hearts to break you, I was on my knees begging for the love." Here, the singer is addressing the person who has caused them so much pain. They have exhausted themselves trying to fix the relationship and are now at their lowest point. The lines "I'm falling to the floor & I can't see you anymore...anymore" show that they have reached a breaking point and can no longer hold on.
Overall, "Fade Away" is a powerful song that touches on the universal experiences of pain and heartbreak. The lyrics are open to interpretation, allowing the listener to connect with the emotions that the song evokes.
