VOX UMBRA Confront & Step Though Darkness With Their Debut EP, 'Unchained/
Transcontinental darkwave duo, VOX UMBRA has unveiled their debut EP, Unchained; a collection of six songs that explore what it means to confront darkness and step through it.
Written and produced across two continents by Tiffany (Seattle, USA) and Florian (Amiens, France), the EP was born of late-night file transfers, dawn vocal takes, and a shared fascination with shadow and light. Each track exists in that liminal space - where longing meets defiance, and beauty is sharpened by melancholy. Thematically, the record traces a journey: from isolation with a track like “Cold Heart”, disillusionment with “On The Right” to moments of spiritual reckoning in “Iron Serpent” and release with the title track, “Unchained”.
Throughout the EP, water and fire imagery run like threads - rivers that carry grief away, candle flames that refuse to go out - creating a world that feels cinematic and intimate at once.
Unchained is a story about breaking cycles: of grief, of silence, of the walls we build around ourselves. It is both a mirror and a torch — reflecting the shadows we live in and lighting a path forward.
Unchained is available on all major digital outlets including Spotify and Bandcamp.
