Greet
When I wake at the witching hour A dreamless vision The veil is thinning Ever speaking, ever seeking And I find myself asking now what have I done Their whispers grow louder, and roar into cries To stop their wheel turning We must now be seeds Bloom even in darkness Sprawling, wild, unique The plough is ours, and so is the reaping For our willing sacrifice A promise keeping And I find myself asking now what can be done Take aim at the masters, bring their reckoning I’ll share with thee, secrets that they keep Steal through the twilight, to their fortress walls Let loose the warhorse, and take the Leather Knight

‘I Know How To Die’ seeks to find solace, beauty and magic between chaos and tragedy. Harmonium driven drones and melodies combine with pastoral singing to create its distinctive brand of poetic, dark folk. Meditative drums weave with moments of flute, bells, strings and guitars to take you from moors, woodlands, taverns and ancient battlefields.

This is music that is emotionally honest, a way to process and engage with trauma and find healing. There is a wanting for peace but knowing it won’t come without action, harkening to revolutionaries throughout time, from the revolters of the Middle Ages, to the PAL action activists of today as well as the reckoning of self.
