"The test of the integrity of a poem, or any work of art, may be, simply: does it lead, in the end, to freedom, or does it merely expand the arena of confinement? A voice from the outside, truly, is what we need to hear. Even a single word. Even something that is not a word, but suggests such a word."

I am indeed back in Blighted. Everything is boring and expensive here! Well actually it's been great catching up with people and I have an unhealthy obsession with cheese and wine... Still. Just want to run away again! How's life with you dudes?
REIGNS 7" is pretty. Really pretty. Doesn't say what speed it is so I'll have to do it at 33. 'Frozen acid' is spectral mid tempo stuff that reminds me of acts such as FortDax or Tomcats in Tokyo. A slowed down vocal interrupts a beautiful rhythmical track, harnessing the chasm between glacial electronic synth frequencies, chiming folk guitars & spacious blunted beats. It sounds like it's been pinched from Static Caravan 3 years ago, that good!!!
Hello, Do you have a song called, I think, "Chambers"? I heard it on the radio, and I love it.
Is it on the "Styne Vallis" CD? If so, I may have to buy it...even if it's not I think I might still buy it after hearing some of your other songs on Boomkat.
:]
