Check out our new review blog and check out a new review of Mourning Magdalene
F inding inner peace through darkness
is a journey that every individual
has sought out throughout time.
But very few have experienced a
musical journey that
Mourning Magdalene has ventured
upon.
Mourning Magdalene is the musical
vision of Dee Jay Nelson, a Chicago
based musician who began creating
songs that documents his life over
the past decade.
Mourning Magdalene’s debut EP,
Six Songs of Self Loathing,
takes listeners on a journey
through his inner darkness.
Musically, Mourning Magdalene steers
like a wild ride through a funeral.
The CD opener ‘Bite’ bursts with
walls of explosive guitar riffing,
while slower tunes like ‘Sunday’s Best’
explores the darker sides of the band,
fusing melodies with his cryptic overtones.
The Illinois Entertainer says that “Mourning Magdalene may have foreshadowed the next dark trend in
angsty bedrooms everywhereâ€
Mourning Magdalene’s “Six Songs of Self Loathing†is
currently available on iTunes and the band is
performing throughout the Midwest for early 2008.
