Denni Ian's sophomore album SALT KING is an expressionistic statement, one heavy with vivid melancholy, yet unreserved in its search for intimacy. The album features a delicate blend of traditional and experimental songwriting, echoing a distinctive sense of amore disperato. Ian’s songwriting is characterised by a poetic and enigmatic lyrical quality, flickering between confessional writing and cryptic poetry.
Inspired by uncanny symbolism, classic folk songwriting traditions and post-punk aesthetics, SALT KING finds itself at a dynamic musical crossroad somewhere between indie-folk and art rock, with a prominent emphasis on the lyrical narrative. With an organic approach to unintended chaos, expanded instrumentation and a collaborative spirit, Ian steps into the role of conductor, opening up a dense and intimate song world, insisting on romance and genuine connection against a backdrop of apocalyptic roars.
It features the singles “Two Figures”, “So This Is How We Dance”, “(Salt King) 0>1” and “Here, In Absence”.
