The Serpent’s Egg

Album by Dead Can Dance

The Serpent's Egg is the fourth studio album by the Anglo-Australian band Dead Can Dance, released in 1988. It has a sound that blends neoclassical and world music influences with sparse, atmospheric arrangements that put the focus on chant-like vocals and medieval-inspired instrumentation, and it continued the band's move away from post-punk toward a more orchestral, ambient approach in their career.
