| june 2009 release ; its neat how this stuff keeps cycling around - one minute youre expecting (and ... you get) some fully rectified pedal abuse ... then the next the polar opposite ; bedroom guitar soul-baring straight out of the roy montgomery songbook (listen to the sound-sample) ...
as someone who clearly enjoys both, im psyched that weve finally arrived at the point in time where its not only possible to straddle these two very polar divides, but in fact acceptable ... mr. witscher pulls of both with admirable aplomb ; neither the squared-off drone-noise and decidedly more friendly guitar pieces come across as half-measures, but ultimately as components of a greater whole. well done ... |
| | arbor75 secret abuse - the immeasurable gift lp
the immeasurable gift is a testament to cathartic possibilities and the role of creation/release as a means of understanding. recorded throughout the past three years in a variety of locations and personal moments; encapsulated by a common, unrelenting concern. beautifully delicate, elegiac melodies concealed within curtains of dense electronic ambiance reveal themselves like the light at the end of the tunnel; a signifier of the temporary vessel form. balancing recklessness with care and coming to terms with the inevitable; encountering the man on the shoulder, reminding us that we are all just weary travelers.
in an edition of 425 records in full color proprinted cardboard jackets with printed labels and an insert; all design by jeff witscher. |
