Discography:
DAWN OF THE GOLDEN ETERNITY LP on DNT
Ten songs recorded at the Owl House basement last winter on cassette 4-track. The LP encompasses a vast array of sounds and moods, from blissed-out drone punk rippers to super chill deep space folk. Total late night stoney textures, and radiant sun anthems. Acoustic and electric guitar, drums, banjo, mbira, and some singing, all mega tripped with syrupy analogy delay. Really beautiful heavy zoners. Hand drawn covers and insert by Dewmah. Edition of 500 on marbled orange vinyl.
$12 (includes shipping in the U.S.) paypal to: [email protected]

awesome Willamette Week feature
