The Infinity Ring let The Bee buzz through gothic folk shadow

The Infinity Ring’s The Bee is the kind of track title that seems simple until the symbolism starts multiplying. Released on 10 June from The Isle of Skye, the song sits in the alternative, folk and goth lane, which gives it an immediate sense of ritual and unease. Bees can suggest sweetness, labour, community, danger, decay or rebirth depending on the light, and that ambiguity is useful for a project that already moves comfortably around darker folk atmosphere. This is not sunshine folk music built for clean pastoral escape. It feels more like a figure standing at the edge of a field, listening for something underneath the natural world. The Infinity Ring understand that gothic folk works best when the darkness is not cosmetic. The Bee sounds like a small creature carrying a large omen.
