I was a sophomore in high school when “Ascendancy” was released. From the moment I saw the “Pull Harder” video, I was hooked. My favorite memory is hearing “Blinding Tears Will Break The Sky” for the first time. Still one of my favorite songs and records of all time.
20 years ago, we released Ascendancy, never knowing the journey it would take us on. The fact that these songs still mean so much to so many is something we’ll never take for granted.
Thank you for being a part of this with us. What’s your favorite Ascendancy memory?
49 years ago today.
“The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.”
Every middle aged man woke up this morning, fired up the Victrola with the soothing voice of Gordon Lightfoot, and shed 29 tears for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
I mean I’m a bit of a degen myself, but you’ve gotta be a special kind of psychopath to bet on some something that’s scripted.
But then again, we bet on the NFL, so what the hell do I know?
