Stone Breath is not a part of any collective, or any commune. Stone Breath is not a part of any scene. Stone Breath is part of the earth. Metal, hair, wood, skin, flesh, leaf, breath, and bone make our songs. We sing hymns to God and the green wood.
Stone Breath is not new. It is cracked. Broken. Imperfect. Hidden. Weathered by the seasons.
Greetings from Stoane Psuupe. Your musick is an aethereal journey upon deep faeric wings. As i enter into the glade amidst your hanging bowers there is a peace profound that cradles and comforts as it opens mine eyes unto wonders untold. And, hey, we kinda share a name in a sideways, slightly askew way. Ankh em Maat.

As the apex of Spring heralds awakenings, Halo Manash emerges from Winter and hibernation ~ Treefaced. Horns spiral skyward and antlers ascend. A tripartite trunk arises – a pillar that splits all worlds.
Am Kha Astrie, a work of heliotropic, elemental ambient, is an opening, an awakening, a summoning, a crossing of thresholds. After their previous oneiric and minimal album, Am Kha Astrie sees Halo Manash re-integrate a more diverse instrumentation and a multiplicity of soundsources to create their work, which consists of seven interrelated tracks. Am Kha Astrie is a complete work in itself, but can also be viewed as the second facet of a tripartite series of works that are part of one holistic creation.
Archaic elemental drums, bones and spiraling animal horns merge with various metal percussions, chimes, wind-instruments, voices and a multitude of other instruments to create a deep, earthly and yet celestially-bound opus. Am Kha Astrie is a massive and sometimes ominous work, a primal experience of coming-into-being, with all the terror, ecstasy and divine awe that it implies.
Comes in a hand finished cardboard booklet, in an edition of 1000 copies.
