Society of the Silver Cross is led by husband and wife duo Joe Reineke and Karyn Gold-Reineke. Their sound has been described as haunting, gothic graceland, twisted americana and even “yogic metal”. Their unique songwriting style blends lush organic instrumentation with immersive soundscapes, bombastic rhythms and chant-like vocals, drawing inspiration from the textures and tones of India.
