On THE KISS AND THE ABYSS, Kate Miller-Heidke returns to her roots - while pushing further into the unknown than ever before. A striking fusion of gothic folk, theatrical storytelling and avant-garde textures, the album finds one of Australia’s most singular voices at her most fearless, expansive and self-assured.

It’s a sound that reconnects Kate with her earliest musical instincts - the folk tradition she grew up listening to and honing her songwriting within - now refracted through a darker, more cinematic lens. Across the record, ancient-sounding instrumentation and mythological imagery collide with distinctly modern anxieties, creating a body of work that feels both timeless and sharply of the moment. Songs like Hidden Things, Canterbury Stone and The Muscle draw on medieval narratives and tonalities - and others on even older mythologies - while reflecting the emotional and ideological battlegrounds of contemporary life.
