Catalog #:
DESTIJL 070LP
"From a small town in the middle of the land of milk and honey, where the air is filled with the blossoming of the fruit trees for a big part of the year, comes these perfect little lilies of bands that make perfect little records that reflect this fertile and flowery region. It's a timeless land, and making records there is possible during this surely short period of history wherein the youth of this era feel as if they've solved the mystery of life and love and it's really loving that is the answer to everything. All of which has nothing at all to do with Circuit Des Yeux and
Sirenium
, which was made in Indiana, and there aren't exactly pipers at the gates of Lafayette. Sound? It's the sound of 'issues,' and the sound of 'troubles.' You don't get but one phone call and honey, the girl's voice makes this message a bit rubbly anyway. Take the manic snorts of captain liberty, dissonant as chalk and the next moment as melodic as sharp yet slick, metal teeth. Take the mermaid, 1988, turn the tides, gently, gently away. Selected breath / silences / selected feedback. Take an argument you have here with an empty street while the memory of high traffic is leaking back.
Sirenum
has a real 'spiritual food' vibe and it's fucking pain and pleasure relief in this real met en zonder sort of way. This world is her world, and pipe if you like it."

Ode To Fidelity
Label:
DE STIJL
Format:
7"
Price:
$5.50
Catalog #:
DESTIJL 085EP
"3 new songs from Haley Fohr. Seemingly inspired by something or someone that has pierced her young, little heart, Ms Fohr has established herself as one of the most ambitious songwriters (for anyone who's taken the time to actually listen to her previous efforts). These sounds form a part of the arc that I doubt has apexed. This single will echo between yr ears till the new full length is complete, surely a monster in full."

Format:

Price:

Catalog #:
DESTIJL 093LP
"
Portrait
is Haley Fohr's third LP and a massive step in her growth as a musician and artist. While pursuing a degree in recording and ethnomusicology she has become proficient in the studio. The result - radically unexpected qualities of cohesion and hi fidelity posit
Portrait
's narratives in a space that we've yet to experience. This sort of playing the game in the way that the game is usually played, I think is usually called a sell-out. And had her intent faltered to the slightest degree that conclusion might be apropos. But it's merely an effort to strip the canvas bare and get face to face with things. And it's Haley's intent that continues to be championed, as it has endured the acts of recording and performing and yet still stands strong and pristine. The rare qualities of strength and character can only be attributed to a rare artist. The modest, clarion sparkle of
Portrait
would not have been expected, or even achievable, considering the arc of
Symphone
and
Sirenum
, and it stands as a cornerstone and a monument, a testament to the daily practice of channeling her 21 yr old, roiling emotions into sound recordings."
