"Dark, haunting, strange and decidedly wyrd-folk...enticing and captivating, to be listened to by flickering candlelight."- Ptolemaic Terrascope

Skullflower "Orange Canyon Mind" CBR45 CD
Orange Canyon Mind is the follow up to 2002's awesome Exquisite Fucking Boredom (Tumult Records), and continues that albums utter mutation of stoned out riffs pulled taffy-like into eternity/oblivion and star-rupturing blasts of sonic white light. Over the 8 tracks/60 minute running time, Bower and cohorts build massive horizontal drones and melodic supernovas. Superb, beautiful, brain melting stuff.
Skullflower "Tribulation" CD cbr55
Tribulation. The new emission from the UK trance-noise legends SKULLFLOWER. A black-void beaming of utterly destroyed drone rock and crushing amplifier obliteration that rains down black ash and punishing blasts of feedback skree on the listener. A dynamic, bleary-eyed meditation. An avalanche of powerdrone that threatens to take your cranium apart and transport your grey matter into filthy new dimensions infested with melodic razor cuts and submerged mantras. A triumphant eruption of apocalyptic meta-metal and radioactive raga swarms, guaranteed to loosen eardrums. This album is one of the heaviest, harshest slabs of guitar armageddon from Matt Bower since the glory days of Total, and bridges the void between the krautrock/celestial free drone influence of the last few Skullflower albums, and the blackened molten death of his Mirag material.
Skye Klad
"Plays the Musick of Cupid's Orkustra Asleep in the Magick Powerhouse of Oz" CD Hand/Eye H/E013
 |
|
|
|
Skye Klad has always been known for working without a net, and this latest effort is no exception. After nearly eight years pushing the envelope of the darkest psychedelic/occultic noise rock imaginable, the group has once again confounded the faithful by returning from the cocoon of a long hiatus with a new album stemming from an approach most unexpected by anyone who has followed them in the past, and sure to intrigue and entice new listeners as well.
Their fascination with the ancient and the esoteric has not waned in the slightest, but the approach and instrumentation is utterly different from past efforts, while maintaining their adventurous and singular vision. Where past efforts pushed listeners through the sonic vortex and past the threshold of pain via dense, fuzzy, post-apocalyptic metallic sheen and pulsing, flowing rhythm, "Skye Klad Plays the Musick of Cupid's Orkustra Asleep in the Magick Powerhouse of Oz" seeks to reach the same end by much more meditative and organic means. Acoustic instrumentation is at the fore, augmented by field recordings, french horn, tribal percussion and a mantric sensibility. There are guitars and basses of course, but there are alsomore exotic stringed instruments such as saz and the custom, sitar-like "witchfynder" as well as flutes and a variety of unsettling found sound and echo effects. Not willing to completely eschew the loves of the past, there is still the occasional transcendent fuzz guitar, but in a much subtler fashion. Group leader Jason Kesselring's vocal style and lyrical sensibility have matured considerably since past efforts, and the lyrical motifs that he explores will certainly appeal to the shuttered bibliophiles among us; those who know the risks of their interest and forge ahead despite the consequences of their actions.
Musically, Skye Klad have always shown a knack for wearing their influences on their sleeves while amalgamating them successfully into a unique and modern aesthetic. Listeners to this latest effort will detect the influence of Bert Jansch and the ghosts of Davey Graham and Robbie Basho, as well as more modern influences such as early Cure and Echo and the Bunnymen, AntiGroup and others. In short, another adventurous album by this unique group, delivering the unexpected once again. Welcome to the new dawn.

Shane Speal "The Black Album" CDr Insurrection Records
The BLACK ALBUM is a strange mix of uncensored protest songs and instrumental cigar box guitar tracks, all presented in lo-fi glory. In his protest lyrics, Speal takes aim at Hollywood, Islamic terrorists and rent-to-own businesses! He's mad as hell and he's got a cigar box guitar and a microphone. Beware. The album is also peppered with instrumentals, softly fingerpicked cigar box guitar songs that provide release from his pissed-off, white knuckle singing.
Topping it off is the packaging which features a mish-mash of outsider art including photocopies of Speal's toy camera photography, freak show postcards and more. The black digipak is hand decorated and signed by Speal, too.

It could be a modern incarnation of the old blues scenario: A man sits in his single-wide mobile home with a primitive guitar (made from a cigar box, stick and 3 guitar strings) and belts out mean murder ballads and dark spirituals thruough a rusty harmonica mic. But it's not a "scenario." This is the real shit. Speal was living in the middle of a Pennsylvania trailer park. He plays a cigar box guitar. And he recorded this album on a simple 4-track cassette recorder..
“ Stealing the Fire” features stark homemade recordings of Speal performing the works of Timothy Renner on a primitive cigar box guitar. It was a simple premis in the beginning. Speal just wanted to know what Renner's dark folk music would sound like if were soaked in Delta blues.
"You shouldn't ever perform Blind Willie Johnson songs until you realize those damning lyrics could send one of the audience members to hell," says Speal, the self-proclaimed King of the Cigar Box Guitar. "In the same regard, you don't dare attempt Timothy Renner's music unless you first realize that you may be sending yourself through hell."
Speal covers Renner's work from Stone Breath, Spectral Light and Moonshine Firefly Jamboree and other recordings, along with Tara VanFlower's "Whore" and an original piece, "The Claw."
track listing:
1• The Claw
2• Black Horse Ride
3• Path of Nails
4• Sunshine in the Eyes of Death
5• Stealing the Fire from Heaven
6• The Eyelit Path
7• Song of the Scarecrow
8• The Bone Collector
9• Black Horse Ride (reprise)
10• Wisdom on the Moth's Wing
11• Whore
12• A Dream of You in the Garden of Gethsemane

Shane Speal "Surreal II" Insurrection Records 07CDr
 |
|
|
|
Hi everyone, it's Shane. This is a new homemade cd I produced myself called "Surreal 2". It's basically a collection of improvisations and instrumentals I've been working one at home (much like a dog works on an old bone). Nothing's perfect on this cd because it was all recorded live to a single microphone. I left some mistakes in because I still don't have a proper recording setup yet. Surreal 2 is just me, a couple cigar box guitars, a screwed up acoustic guitar (with 5 additional strings attached) and a diddley bow. I let myself become as eclectic and weird as possible so that I could push the envelope of this new genre we call PRIMITIVE ROCK.
But, don't worry. I made this as fun (if not 'funner') than the original Surreal. First of all, this album contains a new passion of mine: Hindustani Classical Music. Unlike the masters of Indian Classical, I haven't learned all the raga rules and traditions. I just play the things I feel are cool. Second, I captured some quieter improvisations on cigar box guitar which were inspired by avant garde icon, Paul Metzger of the band TVBC. Third, this cd gave me the opportunity to finally lay down some tracks with my Kurt Schoen "TurboDiddley" and Jimfrets Ferris cigar box guitars. Both are resonator instruments and both have unique characters of their own. Fourth, I filled in the gaps between the songs with some trippy effects, movie snippets and a repeating "variation on a theme."
Kurt Schoen told me that the original Surreal cd was one of his favorites to listen to in his shop. I hope this new edition makes him just as inspired. It isn't a perfect album, it's not professional. I guess it's like folk art or outsider art....kinda cool and full of imperfections.
I hope you like it. If you buy a copy, let me know what you think.
sincerely,
shane
Still "Remains" PG004 CD
Dälek Turntablist, Still (Hsi-Chang Lin) goes solo and unleashes a dark ambient masterpiece that borders on sonic terrorism. Created using only Technics 1200's and an array of effects pedals, Still's REMAINS is not a "turntablist" record in the traditional sense. Drawing from (and adding to) the history of alternative turntable use, REMAINS is an ambient record whose textures at times run side by side with the work of PHILLIP JECK or APHEX TWIN. Two laborious years were put into the 35 minutes that comprise the album. Each track was painstakingly mapped out and played live in the studio. Opening with aggressive noise and evolving into delicate ambience, REMAINS supersedes the preconceived range of the turntable, infusing emotion into an otherwise inhuman instrument.

Stone Breath "Songs of Moonlight and Rain" expanded CD reissue Hand/Eye h/e031
Presaging the free/freak/acid-folk boom by almost a decade, Stone Breath carved a unique place in what was then a very lonely neighborhood. “Songs of Moonlight and Rain,” the first Stone Breath album, struck a spectral note somewhere between Syd Barrett singing nature poetry and The Incredible String Band’s more lonesome moments; blended with experimental graveyard-songs and acoustic drones into a brew of darkness and hope; nature and supernature; love and loss.
This 10-year anniversary edition presents the entire original album with nine bonus tracks! Several bonus tracks from the same period – dating back to the very first Stone Breath song ever recorded (1995), all of the songs from the "Strange Familiars" 7" ep, and related songs from later periods, including a collaboration with Fit & Limo.
track listing:
1• The Ghosts of Sounds Long Dead
2• Seven Things Placed in a Hollow Tree
3• Pennies (Stolen from the Eyes of a Dead Man)
4• Wisdom on the Moth's Wing
5• Perched Upon the Temple Bell, the Butterfly Sleeps
6• Flowers on Your Grave
7• Earthlights
8• The Sound of Ghosts Long Dead
9• Words Written on Petals
10• Willowisp
11• The Strength to Face the Stars Above
12• To Cull Undying Flowers
13• The Flight of the Black Swan
14• Long Lost Friend
15• Snaketooth Vision
16• Thunder Runs Through Me
Bonus Tracks:

Stone Breath "Lanterna Lucis Viriditatis" CDr Hand/Eye H/E006
 |
|
|
|
The third album from Stone Breath, “Lanterna Lucis Viriditatis,” finds the band journeying further down the darkened paths they first showed us on their other CDs, “Songs of Moonlight and Rain” and “A Silver Thread to Weave the Seasons.". The darkened deep woods folk and acoustic experimentalism Stone Breath conjured on their earlier recordings is here refined in a cauldron of sound that may well define “wyrdfolk” (a term coined by Stone Breath’s Timothy Renner to express the music that he and his friends make).
For “Lanterna Lucis Viriditatis,” Stone Breath founding member, Timothy, is again partnered with Prydwyn (who appeared on the “… Silver Thread…” CD) and new members Ra Campbell, and Sarada. The diverse instrumentation that Stone Breath has been known for is here continued with acoustic guitars, banjos, flutes, whistles, sitar, dulcimer, harmonium, and many others being melded together by the band in their trademark ghostly earth songs. Strange new tunings, and beautiful harmony vocals have only added to Stone Breath’s magic bag.
With a darker sound than past albums, “Lanterna Lucis Viriditatis” finds Timothy tracing a theme throughout the record: a silver thread weaving together such elements as St. John the Baptist, Osiris and Isis, John Barleycorn, Templar Knights, King Solomon, and Jesus Christ all shown in the light (or shadow as the case may be) of Renner’s ever present nature poetry/observations.
The songs will speak louder than words: from the mysterious opening track to the subdued tones of COB’s “Solomon’s Song,” to the medieval dance, “Estampie” (actually a traditional Appalachian song somehow made more ancient by Renner’s clawhammer banjo and Prydwyn’s deft recorder and percussion), to the epic closing track, “Lanterna Lucis Viriditatis” will lead the listener on a journey through the night shadows of forgotten truths.
Track listing:
1• Sunshine in the Eyes of Death 2• The Eyelit Path 3• Sword Baptismal 4• Solomon’s Song 5• The Way of Green Osiris 6• John Barleycorn 7• The Red Crossed Knight 8• It’s Hard to Dance with the Devil on Your Back 9• Sleep then, with the Incense of Orchids around You 10• The Face of God 11• Estampie 12• Moongazer 13• The Lantern of the Greening Light

Mike Tamburo "Dance Enis Dance" CDr BF025
Mike Tamburo returns with an epic 32 minute suite of Basho-esque fingerpicking and psychedelic drones, that are exhilarating yet meditative and clearly an expression of deep catharsis. The album is packaged in full colour sleeves featuring cover art by Pete Spynda, housed in vinyl slip cases, contains an insert and is limited to 100 copies.

Terry Earl Taylor Another Time CD Dark Holler HOLLR231
 |
|
|
|
Terry Earl Taylor plays a Fender Allegro five-string banjo in the two-finger picking style. He draws from the folksong traditions of the UK and Appalachia , and like all the great banjo songsters, he adds much of his own style to the music. A comparison might be Clive Palmer (though Terry has never heard Clive´s music!), or perhaps Dock Boggs if he was from the UK. But really, Terry is his own man, playing his own music, timeless and original.
"Another Time" is a collection of songs that range from originals, to the partly traditional (with additional lyrics by Terry), to the wholly traditional. This music resides in the lonely back roads, haunted dark hollers, and graveyards of the rural traditions that bore it. One listen to the spine-chilling "Go Make another Grave" will make it apparent why we felt this Dark Holler was the right home for Terry Earl Taylor.
Track Listing:
1. I´ve been Away 2. Where the Cock don´t Crow 3. John Lankin 4. Wish I had a Parker Pen 5. She came down to Town 6. Long Journey Home 7. Go Make another Grave 8. Motel in the Pines 9. Sadie Grove 10. Dock Boggs is Dead 11. Hanging at Picnic Rock 12. Prettiest Girl I ever Saw 13. Waterbound 14. Poor Clarence Hopkins 15. Billy Bones 16. November 31st 17. Going ´round the World
Timothy, Revelator "Lost Gospel Music Volume I: Beneath the Bleeding Moon" CDr Hand/Eye H/E017
 |
|
|
|
"Beneath the Bleeding Moon," the first volume in Timothy´s "Lost Gospel Music" series was recorded at Unreal House, direct to tape (yes, analog) over the course of a few nights in September 2004. With the exception of some overdubbed bowed-dulcimer on two tracks, all songs were recorded live with vocals and ent-banjo, an instrument of Timothy´s design.
Here are moon-songs to God and the green wood, and secret songs to night angels - drawing influences from east (Ostad Elahi, Abdelah Ghania) and west (Buell Kazee, Derroll Adams), Timothy blends the Middle Eastern/African roots of the banjo easily with its American descendant. Improvisation is blended with structured songs. Timothy´s music is blended with Richard Crashaw´s words (Crashaw was a Catholic metaphysical poet, 1613-1649, 4 of his poems are set to music on this release). The end result of these mixtures is "Beneath the Bleeding Moon," an album unique in both concept and sound.
Track listing: 1. The Weeping Eye of God 2. Petals on the Arms of the Wind 3. On the Still Surviving Markes of Our Saviour´s Wounds 4. Blessed of the Holy Trees 5. In Silence and in Shadow Keep 6. Upon the Infant Martyrs 7. Song Upon the Bleeding Crucifix 8. Within Your Halo 9. A Song 10. Angel of the First Dream 11. Another Eye

"Primitive Recordings" CDr Insurrection013
 |
|
|
|
A stark album in the spirit of Johnny Cash's American releases. Primitive Recordings features tiMOTHy (Renner) seated in front of a single microphone, armed with only a homemade cigar box banjo. Gone are the drone textures and psychedelic spoken word excursions of his last few recordings...this is what Renner sounds like on a back porch in the quiet hours of the night as moths dance around the flame. Renner's right hand scratches out powerful clawhammer riffs in perfect syncopation as his rich baritone voice summons the dead. This is a deep album.
His cigar box banjo is based on an instrument dating back to the 1870's...a simple wood cigar box, plank of wood and 5 banjo strings. It's creaky and dusty sounding. In other words, perfect for the spirituals and murder ballads he plays on this disc. There are no special effects and no overdubs...just singer and banjo (and maybe a few ghosts in the background). Also included is the bonus track, Two White Horses, performed by Renner on a 3-string cigar box guitar.
Insurrection Records is known for its cigar box guitar cds and homemade packaging. The cd is packaged in Insurrection's "PovertyPak" cardstock case.
track listing:
1• Angeline
2• Little Sadie
3• The Queen of All the Gypsies
4• Dyin' Bed
5• Pretty Polly
6• Haunted Road Blues
7• The Valley

The Trees Community "The Christ Tree" CD (plus bonus tracks) Hand/Eye h/e030
 |
|
|
|
“The Trees Community was a musical group as well as a community. We started out as disparate individuals who were just looking for the truth. In the summer of 1970 we stumbled upon a semi-abandoned loft in New York City with no locked door and through it, entered a collective life in the service of God. The language of our service was original music played on 80 instruments from around the world.
The early music was powerful, intricately beautiful and inspiring. Sometimes it was as if thousands of voices were joining and pouring through our own, like several Mellotrons being played at once in different keys, the music liquid, dynamic, ever changing. One night we might travel along a hot, dusty road in Ancient Egypt, with the sounds of donkey’s hooves and clanging pots. Another night we were adrift in a foggy sea, the boat groaning and creaking and a distant bell tolling. We were part of a living, breathing unrehearsed story -- a symphony. God handed us each separate parts yet no one knew the script. Eventually the music evolved, but never traveled far from these mystic roots.
In the spring of 1971 we embarked on a pilgrimage without a destination. Our journey was so named because we had no itinerary, traveling from place to place by pure faith. We lived in a converted school bus and traveled extensively for seven years throughout the U.S. and Canada. We visited many churches and fellowships including Trappist, Benedictine, Franciscan and Paulist monastic communities, evangelical and social outreach groups of every denomination, a Hutterite farming collective, and eventually returned to New York City to the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in NYC, where we became a community in residence. We continuously learned from every group and person we met, sharing our lives, slowly building a musical expression of the gift of faith we had been given.
The Music on this CD set is both the audible manifestation and remnant of who we were as a musical community. As we evolved so did our sound, culminating in a musical mediation called 'The Christ Tree'. This meditation was enacted live during many prayer services and concerts, with several recordings including a studio recording on a vinyl LP in 1975. This CD release includes what was on this recording as well as additional music and other material from our shared experiences. This endeavor captures some of the magic and mystery of the time, and our hope is that there is more to be re-created in the heart of the listener.” – The Trees Community, 2005
