Italian dark folk/doomgaze outfit Bosco Sacro has unleashed the second single and video, "Be Dust", from the approaching live album, Live At Chiesa Armena, set for release on 18 April via Go Down Records.
"'Be Dust' is the second track of our debut album Gem", the band comments. "Lyrically, it describes the path of a man worn out by desires, passions, and losses who decides to step back from the civilized world and immerse himself in the wilderness. The observation of nature surrounding and embracing him mirrors the encounter and the exploration of his inner, spiritual dimension: psychically, the wood is the place where the external corresponds to the internal, where we can return to a point zero, from which we are able to restart. The gradual steps of such a healing journey are reflected by a crescendo of the song's intensity, built up by different parts that, once developed, never return and don't follow a repetitive scheme. As a band, we see this track as one of our most powerful compositions, a fact confirmed by the audience's vivid reaction during each live performance. Enjoy!"

"I like to call our music suicide pop, because our songs are pretty easy to listen to, but the topics are very negative and quite dark. It's pop, but negative pop." - Simone Salvatori
