The album Brian started
recording as far back as the Eight Thousander sessions, and also the
record he has always intended to be written especially for Second Sun.
Musically it covers alot of guitar-heavy territories...an epic 70 minute
record that cycles through somber drone-beds, backwoods acoustics,
gigantic distorted slabs of doom and beautiful bent melodies looping
forever. Occasionally through the haze you can make out organs,
basslines and field recordings that echo the album's cozy home cover
art. This is Brian's first full-length at SSR under his own name, and as
such we'd like to consider it his first proper solo album here, with
unified concepts of
art, sound, memories, locations and numbers all planted firmly in place.
It's a very sad record that sounds like it's trying to find its way home
again, even though it already knows that place no longer exists. Perfect
listening for the advent of Autumn.
