"Sequestered like some immensely valuable
lost scripture, Mike Seed continues unerringly to produce
important work after important work, whether alone or as part
of the Phantom Carriage collective; music that comes through
him yet not from him. Accompanied by guitar or autoharp or
simply a cappella, the songs evoke, with a compelling beauty,
the tales of those who cannot find a place of rest: ‘all
that exists is not manifest'." - Rob Smith (Safetyword)

This is a special edition exclusive to AntiClock. Artwork by Stone Breath silkscreened, by Language of Light, in silver on uncoated paperboard jackets. Includes a special silkscreened lyric sheet.
With occult overtones, Stone Breath create complicated and intricately beautiful avant folk, this time with a distinctly Middle Eastern influence;
half composed, half improvised, complex and driving.
Mike Seed and Language of Light bring a collection of songs
drifting from the downright dark and haunting to the decidedly wyrd-folk imbued with a
profound sense of introspection and occult mystery in melodies reminiscent
of English folk ballad or early liturgical hymns.
"...Over two sides, this release oozes quality, creating a damn near perfect slab of vinyl, highly recommended..." - Ptolemaic Terrascope
"...the future for this humble group of spiritual psych folk artists looks as brilliant from my perspective as the lamp that leads them on their individual paths." - Heathen Harvest

from iTunes
"...an introvert album packed with 20 naked and
haunting folk miniatures that tend to look inwards rather
than outwards. Beautifully picked guitar and Seed’s
affecting voice are at the center..."
- The
Broken Face
"...a carnivalesque
record, with Seed as the laconic barker showing us what is
inside each garish little tent, those that just happen to
be in and outside of ourselves." - Foxy
Digitalis
"Dark, haunting,
strange and decidedly wyrd-folk...enticing and captivating,
to be listened to by flickering candlelight."- Ptolemaic
Terrascope
"Guitar work
such as Mike Seed's will be enjoyed by two audiences, those
enjoying the original folk music and further those listening
to the dynamically progressive acoustic finger work with its
heart firmly embedded in American style of modern folk...
imbued with melodies of raw and introspective melancholy...."
- Heathen
Harvest
"...sparse,
delicate, very evocative, sometimes spooky and always enthralling...Fantastic
album." - KZSU
