Das Scheit's album So Far From God So Close To You is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs that showcase the band's musical prowess and lyrical depth. The album is a masterful blend of gothic rock, post-punk, and darkwave, with each track offering a unique and captivating experience.
From the opening track "Abyss" to the closing "The End," the album takes the listener on a journey through the shadows of the human psyche. The haunting vocals of lead singer Mike York are complemented by the intricate guitar work of Chris Harms and the atmospheric keyboards of Oliver Zorn.
One of the standout tracks is "The Room," a brooding and introspective song that builds to a powerful and emotional climax. The lyrics are deeply personal and introspective, exploring themes of isolation, fear, and self-doubt.
