Wicca Phase Springs Eternal is releasing his EP, Midnight at the Castle Moorlands, on October 25th via Run For Cover Records, ahead of the LP’s arrival, the artist has shared the single “My Name is the Endless Night.” Wicca Phase Springs Eternal Pennsylvania-based singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Adam McIlwee.

McIlwee discussed the song’s combination of mystical and modern saying:

“”My Name is the Endless Night” is a smoke-and-mirrors song. The magic worked and now it’s showing up in the most mysterious and deceptive ways: the frost on the grass, the fleeting wind, the passing fog, etc. All of this is sung from the perspective of the ‘rider in black,’ the ‘dark prince on the mountain.'”

McIlwee got his start as a member of indie favorites, Tigers Jaw, then with WPSE he founded Gothboiclique and was a trailblazer within the world of Soundcloud rap. Since then he’s collaborated with Ethel Cain and even written a theme song for AEW wrestling star Darby Allin.

Midnight at the Castle Moorlands was recorded with engineer Matt Schimelfenig (Spirit of the Beehive, Golden Apples, Slaughter Beach, Dog) the Midnight at the Castle Moorlands is imbued with a warm, tangible grit that compliments the mystical settings and earnest feelings that McIlwee explores lyrically. “I wanted to make the most organic sounding album I could while using electronic production,” he explains. “I’m always trying to figure out how to immerse the listener even more–whether that’s sonically or lyrically, and for these songs that meant reining things in and grounding them. I didn’t want to keep getting bigger and bigger, I wanted something looser and more lo-fi.”
