peterwilson330 Sounds uncannily like a semi-rural, chilled out Killing Joke - less apocalyptic, more domesticated. Good stuff all round.

about

Born from troubled times, a final blast of resilience against the crush of these dead years. Onwards, as the world sinks!

This is 'edgeland music' beamed from the lonely suburbs and towns, where prejudice is cultivated, marginalisation breeds contempt and misinformation is spread. It's best to just embrace 'nowhere' and unlink yourself from the incessant noise. The fields are waiting. Always underneath the houses.

Contemplative arrangements that combine into an unhurried, pastoral post rock. Very much reminisent of the windswept vistas of rural England. burntstick

Great record. wears it's influences proudly ..but retains a sliver of identity that is uniquely British and has a northern feel to it..I think that these geographic musical vignettes are realy evocotive of northern Newtown Uber estates and satellite communities..I hope this translates to a wider audience for him...he deserves the attention. give him his due .NOW . christopherogley
