march 2008 release ; new music from antony “a.m.” milton (with a little help from james “sandoz lab technicians” kirk) under his nether dawn guise ... five unique bedroom guitar / drum takes (coming across almost as a less-orchestrated version of some of stefan “pumice” neville’s recent work) then an awesome near-20-minute live vocal-phantasm & guitar-burn cut (the title track & the sound-sample) ...

the nether dawn - "long shadow of a dream"

the nether dawn is arguably the most narcotic, most ethereal of the many guises of the ever-prolific and talented antony milton. for the unfamiliar few, milton runs the sainted pseudoarcana label out of his native new zealand and records as myrtu!, a.m., paintings of windows, clay man in the well, swagger jack and as a member of claypipe, with throats as fine as needles, the stumps, glory fckn sun and more. running through all of his projects is something of a dreamlike, nostalgic delirium that is concretized and distilled on "long shadow of a dream."

the recordings on "long shadow of a dream" date from 2004-2006. despite this temporal span they seem like they've emerged organically from the same eternal, humming tapestry of sound. the album's final track is, unquestionably, its apex and it contains what are perhaps the most soul-baring, cathartic moments which milton has committed to tape. here, antony's vision becomes nearly visible in its mammoth totality - howling whisps of feedback, billows of keyboard and loops conjoin with voice and throat in ecstatic communion. the aural landscape of milton's nether dawn will utterly entrance and beguile you and, in the end, it will surely devour you whole.

glass organ "our"

glass organ is the minnesota duo of justin meyers (devillock / tone filth) and tom helgerson. "our" is their third release, following tapes on tone filth and twonicorn (which have recently been released together as the "two tapes" lp), and constitutes a formal peak for their unmistakable sound.

helgerson's utterly blasted guitar spurts smoldering static drones which are stalked and devoured by meyers' rumbling tapes and electronics. broken plumes of charred, oceanic rumbling, and gorgeous vistas of saturated analog gliss.

"molten strings, train wrecks, and birdsong"

almost two years in the making, "molten strings, train wrecks and birdsong" is an expansive compilation loosely centered around sound made by stringed instruments. strings are the primary sources of sound on all of these recordings, and the majority of the works are generated solely from them. the record offers a wealth of different approaches to these instruments. from the scathing, feedback blasts yielded by fred lonberg-holm's cello and mini-amplifiers, to the dexterous blur of c. spencer yeh's violin fretwork, from the pastoral vistas of peter wright's danelectro 12 string, to the billowy dirges of birchville cat motel, zaimph, family underground, and taiga remains.

lending the record even further diversity are joyous bouzouki renderings from the north sea, and damaged, eerie and beautiful contributions from robert horton and brothers of the occult sisterhood. presented together, the record is cohesive in the same way that the best compilations are, flowing effortlessly from track to track and, in the process, demonstrating the diversity and immense capability of all things stringed.
