Requiem

Drawing on doom metal influences and the timbres of Rylan Gleave’s late-breaking voice, this production features reimagination of church organ for synths and samples, delivering a mammoth sound-world in an electric live iteration.

The band’s second album, Requiem, explores the conditions of transmasculinity and forgiveness through an Anglican lens, with the tracks ‘Lux Aeterna’ and ‘Sequentia’ and ‘In Paradisum’ reimagined live.

Joined by collaborators Neil Charles on bass guitar, Stuart Brown on drums, Simone Seales on cello, Oliver Vibrans on electronics, and Requiem producer Scott McLean on guitar, Gleave leads All Men Unto Me in a new, alternative live direction.

The live show also showcases Tobias Holmbeck’s projected visualisers and Frankie Mulholland’s costume design and makeup artistry.

Genre: Rock/avant garde
