It has come to that point in this bizarre week that I’m actually home, sober. Thank the gods.

Oh, Iet’s try an experiment since my readership here at A.M.M.M has has gotten so high this week. I’m searching for a guitarist, bassist, and drummer. I’m putting finishing touches on my new Assyria album and I need a band for shows. There are some pretty BIG opportunities coming up and it would be great to be able to jump on them. Email me at angelotursi@gmail.com if you or someone you know might be interested.  You REALLY don’t want to miss this opportunity. Take my word.

Today I’ve been listening to Ex Reverie, which is the work of Gillian Chadwick, who has until now comprised the second half of Woodwose with Jessica Weeks. In this incarnation she keeps the emerging Language of Stone tradition of witchy lost-era folk that haunts the past as much as it moves into the future. This is not quite as evil/sweet as the last LoS release, Orion Rigel Domisse, but it has many of the same somber string touches and strangely ominous keys that made that one memorable. Chadwick’s voice is picked straight out of the Pentangle/ Fairport era folk set; and mixed with Weeks’ guitar and keyboards that seem at once out of place for their squeezed electricity and at home due to their panic ridden cries, she soars like modern enchantress she portrays.

Enjoy!

(And oh yea, I’m doing fine, thanks for asking!)
