CD comes in a custom mini-gatefold paperboard jacket, with lyrics included.
"After the Fire, Before the End is a musical embodiment of the emotions felt under a truly existential burden. The hauntingly beautiful sounds, rapturous in places and often surging in true shoegaze style, can help cope with and overcome life’s challenges. No doubt, in a world that is in a state of confusion, self-conscious lamentation is probably the best strategy to stop one from losing one’s mind."
All music composed and performed by Postcards: Julia Sabra, Pascal Semerdjian and Marwan Tohme. Lyrics by Julia Sabra. Additional arrangements by Fadi Tabbal.
Recorded, engineered and mixed by Fadi Tabbal at Tunefork Studios in Beirut, between October 2020 and April 2021. Mastered by Heba Kadry.
Produced by Fadi Tabbal and Postcards.
All photos by Rachel Tabet.
Design by Josette ZOoz Khalil.
