In The Fire
04:13

start a fire
hide in the leaves
make a mess
we don’t believe
take what’s mine
I’ll find what remains
stand in line
wait for the rain
to come down

Motel Window

gliding out
on the haze from the sodium lights
drying up
it’s a photograph on a sill
pulling in
lock it out like it won’t find a way
lying back
and the cable stations turn
it’s all we know
can we feel it here?
it’s all we know
it’s all we know
can we feel it more?
it’s all we know

see it fall
hear the call
drown your past

Void
05:20
|
|||
|
shifting scenes
prelude memory
distantly
the dagger falls on you
winter spring
collect the reeds
sage and leaf
ice of harboring
and I’ll take why
the sparrow cries
the rose I find
a gleam divine
we lay our time
as the crow flies
the branches die
upon the door
savor of love
our broken moments
savor of void
untide the waves

Woodlands
04:52
|
|||
|
walking in circles
hope to arrive
listening for the angels to tell us why
no time for a vision
keep going round
stare at the distance
in the frozen yards the birdbaths watch the sky
could it get better
I will run away
holding the embers in my hands
where the woodlands pray
enter through the doors and fall down
watch all the houses
take what you can
do the sparks become a light if you hold on?
in June there’s another
keep wasting time
now life is breaking
decorated with the remnants of a fire
can’t fight the weather
I will run away
holding the embers in my hands
where the woodlands pray
enter through the doors and fall down
I will run away
stumbling through thickets made of years
hear the woodlands pray
kiss the painted feet and fall down

Churchyard
07:58
|

|
winter’s abandon
lifted in rays
solace of aerie’s claim
bones in the churchyard
the owls at dusk
watching the statues pray
tell me what you whispered to the grove
as the curtains fell
in the darkness you felt for a door
with your hand aflame
what did the air hear that day?
what did the walls have to say?
you held the key
but couldn’t open the gate
ice in the rainfall
teeth in the night
a ritual sacrifice
voices like mirrors
thundering bright
curses in graven type
hallowed tombs in moon’s still light
cross of oak reminds
dawn is breaking in the fog
but the shroud remains
|

Eldritch
07:47
|
|||
|
there’s a darkness
at the core
in the waking
sorrow looms
secrets lurking
in the fog
visions breaking
red as blood
the voice
of
old
the call
to
go
apparitions
here then gone
speaking horrors
to the ground
cloaked in velvet
serpent staff
maw of bearing
satyr’s curse
the dark
falls
here
our eyes
hold
fear
kept like secrets
ancient hands
from the sinking
madness teems
earth is shaking
open crypts
hymns of rising
on their lips
(older than time)

Empty Flood
05:10
|
|||
|
barren, the lands
ice and leaf, nothing more
taken, the hours
left to pick at the bones
in this scrapyard
we’re all falling
losing moments
are we breathing?
tired and stale
hounded steps, fixed in time
floating for years
gazing deer, tell me why
in this graveyard
do we lock hands?
stare through windows
as we burn it

Around 10pm here, in Scotland. Just got home from taking my kid to look at Pokemon cards (he got a good one, apparently). Three what-did-you-buy-me cats (only 2 of which are mine) appear from corners with expectation. I press play on my phone & take a breath. Outside, the lonely owl has his one-sided conversation in the dark. Inside, beautiful tones start up...

An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow.

Utterly gripping doomgaze lit up by the haunting vocals of Michelle Malley make Iress a band to watch.

Glycerine

Allison Lorenzen & Midwife team up for a gooseflesh-raising cover of this ’90s radio staple, rendering it profoundly unsettling.

A very soothing experience which I find is great for meditation. Offers a diverse set of tones throughout the album. This evokes different emotional experiences which I always appreciate in an album.
