In 'Walk the Earth,' Mykie undertakes a bold departure from his earlier work on 'Spiders in my Eyes', delving into a sound that is undeniably more ambitious and complex. It's exploration of a darker facet of Americana, focusing on regret and isolation.
Embracing a diverse country-oriented instrumentation, Mykie weaves together a mesmerizing sonic tapestry that pays homage to the authenticity of Johnny Cash while maintaining the haunting thumbprint of his own country sound.
He infuses the album with a brooding intensity and a visceral sense of introspection, drawing inspiration from gothic acts like Sisters of Mercy and Type O Negative.
'Walk the Earth' is the result of unwavering dedication to Mykie's musical process, a culmination of seven months of unwavering passion.
