Soon to come!

There is a Stench here so old that it rids the body of any uncertainty. It is a comfortable Rapture. The Stench comes not from distant swamps,
putrescent
and green in their small wakes, or the mounds of bone matter and meat
made Dust underfoot. This waft of hidden and yet all-too demanding
treasures lifts itself steadily from the bated,
beating Wings of the Bird, on its etermal voyage somewhere Far past home.



Utilising both analogue Synthesis and a dynamic range of acoustic instrumentation, Bird From the Abyss'
Matias Aaltonen crafts definitively archaic compositions and flawlessly
timed improvisations steeped in universal mystery. The tectonic
movements developing and unfolding from these Unholy hymns mold and fold
into one another, cutting clear marks across certain borders while
blurring any known remnants of others.



This eponymous opus combines three previously-released and long out of
print EPs (I, II & III), a track created as an 'electronic
synthesiser installation' (Electric Forest), and Two untitled,
previously unheard tracks.



Red cassette shells with black ink (c40 + c60) Housed in custom-made handcut, scored & dyed chipboard cardstock cases with front, side, spine & insert artwork by D.S. Ciarán.
