St. Just Vigilantes: Pastor of Oaks, Shepherd of Stones
Pastor of Oaks, Shepherd of Stones, is a shape-shifting dervish where pop mantras melt into vespers for broken angles and hymns for the dream brigades. It’s a cactus trance of ancient metronomes, ESP murmurs and pomegranate flavoured candy canes; kaleidoscopic drift giving voice to ashtray throwing poltergeists, grooving as they do, twisting the night away. An unborn baby’s heart beats next to a flurry of incandescent splendour and the vigilantes quote the poet Rumi as they stumble and skip. Histories without words are the cords that bind and (for now) Just is patron saint of opiate mystics; Sufi Strung Out, Shepherd of Stones.
