That's a great 'little drone' and experiment!

'I'll not weep that thou art going to leave me, 
There's nothing lovely here; 
And doubly will the dark world grieve me, 
While thy heart suffers there. 

I'll not weep, because the summer's glory 
Must always end in gloom; 
And, follow out the happiest story— 
It closes with a tomb! 

And I am weary of the anguish 
Increasing winters bear; 
Weary to watch the spirit languish 
Through years of dead despair. 

So, if a tear, when thou art dying, 
Should haply fall from me, 
It is but that my soul is sighing, 
To go and rest with thee.'

Stanzas by E.B.

I only came here to say goodbye by kindred spirits

Is it a trailer? A behind-the-scenes featurette? A sneak peek? It's all of the above, and yet somehow even less! :) 

Here's a hint of what's coming in my forthcoming radiophonic/folk soundtrack to The Dark is Rising, the classic 1973 children's novel by Susan Cooper. The album will be released on limited edition cassette by the Dark Outside in 2018, and tracks from it will be featured as part of #TheDarkIsReading, a groundbreaking large-scale Twitter book group which will be reading the book in real time starting on 20 Dec 2017. 

If you like the music you can follow me here or on Twitter (@analoguerob) for more announcements as we get closer to the album release. Thanks for listening.

Coming soon: The Dark is Rising

I Was A Soldier

Peter J. Woods "On Passivity (Revised)"
Track from forthcoming Peter J. Woods "Today Is Horrible" CD on Misanthropic Agenda. MAR048

Recorded between 2014 and 2018, Today is Horrible chronicles the sonic elements from six different performance
pieces written and performed by Woods during that time. Although these recordings rely on Woods’ usual palette 
of sounds (sine waves, crumbling static, obscured text, stretches of silence, etc), TiH reorganizes those elements 
into a powerful and haunting collection of deceptively straightforward compositions that only reveal themselves 
after multiple listens. The album touches on a number of different socially charged themes, ranging from the failure 
of political change within unwavering social paradigms to the construction of whiteness within media, that remain 
connected through an unwavering critical stance towards the modern social condition. However, these notions 
remain submerged under crushing walls of distortion, heavy synth drones, and barely whispered vocals, only 
coalescing for those with the patience to revisit the work on multiple occasions.

Today Is Horrible

Peter J. Woods "On Passivity (Revised)"

``I can't feel anything, but you inside of me
It's nothing physical, It's only mentally
I can't eat anything, because you're inside me
I feel fulfilled with you, with you inside of me

I can't do anything, without you inside me
It's not that I don't do a thing
In my mind, you're always here with me

I don't need anything, with you inside of me
I'm completely satisfied, with what you bring to me
I can't sleep anymore, though, day and night I dream
In my dreams, it's only you and me

I can't feel anything, but you inside me
In my dreams, there's only you and me
It can't be mutual, because you are my dream
Impossible for you to feel for me, what I feel for thee

No matter where I look, only you I see
Even when my eyes are closed,
I see you inside me
I don't love you the most, I love you, only``

nothing physical

Artist: Penance Stare
Track: Cradlewell (Lacrima)
Album Title: Solanaceae
Label: Crow Versus Crow
Catalogue Number: CVC011
Format: Limited Edition of 50 cassettes & digital download
Release Date: Friday 1st February 2019

Crow Versus Crow is honoured to be able to present, 'Solanaceae', the second full-length record from Penance Stare, the
Gateshead (UK)-based project of songwriter Esmé Louise Newman. 

Following the much-lauded 'Scrying'(2018) and
'House of Bastet' EP (2017) cassettes, this bleak and haunted recording captures Penance Stare at its most fully-realised
thus far.

Previously known for her work in Melting, Commiserations, and Etai Keshiki, among many others, Esmé has
spent the last two years deep in sonic exploration, developing an incredibly rich sound that, “whips together
atmospheric black metal with darkwave, shoegaze, stormy ambient, and witch house… as soothing as it is intense” (Kim
Kelly, Noisey).

'Solanaceae' deals lyrically with themes of trauma, illness, ageing, neglect and regret, and is rendered with a sonic
palette of heavy drum machine rhythms, degraded chamber music passages, low fidelity guitar fuzz and blurred out
vocals.

With blatant disregard for the oft-perceived sanctity of aesthetic dogma, Penance Stare draws voraciously from a
wealth of seemingly disparate musical sources, twisting the Gothic ephemeral grandeur of Cocteau Twins, the blunt
mass of industrial noise, the layered textural intricacy of ‘Loveless’ and the raw, razor thin brutality of contemporary
Black Metal, to form distinctly articulate works of personal expression.

After stunning audiences at initial exploratory gigs in Manchester and Leeds and as part of TUSK Fringe during 2018,
Penance Stare will be performing at select live dates throughout the UK, and writing and recording new material with
an expanded line up in 2019

'Solanaceae' is released as a limited edition of 50 professionally dubbed cassettes and digital download via the Crow Versus Crow Bandcamp on Friday 1st February 2019.
