Title:	Plays the Musick of Cupid's Orkustra Asleep...
Label:	HAND/EYE
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	H/E 013CD

...Within the Magick Powerhouse of Oz. "After nearly eight years pushing the envelope of the darkest psychedelic/occultic noise rock imaginable, the group has once again confounded the faithful by returning from the cocoon of a long hiatus with a new album stemming from an approach most unexpected by anyone who has followed them in the past, and sure to intrigue and entice new listeners as well. Acoustic instrumentation is at the fore, augmented by field recordings, french horn, tribal percussion and a mantric sensibility. There are guitars and basses of course, but there are also more exotic stringed instruments such as saz and the sitar-like 'witchfynder,' as well as flutes and a variety of unsettling found sound and echo effects. Another adventurous album by this unique group, delivering the unexpected once again. Welcome to the new dawn."

Title:	For Our Friends in the Enchanted Otherworld
Label:	HAND/EYE
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	H/E 032CD

"Robin co-founded the experimental no-wave art band, DNA, and later collaborated with varied artists (including Steven Brown of Tuxedomoon and filmmaker Jim Jarmusch) in the guise of his Dark Day project. His new solo explorations have been described by Devendra Banhart as 'beguiling, powerful, hypnotic, mesmerizing, commanding, delicately unnerving, lilting, mellow,' and 'tense as hell.' A tiny treasure box from a lost garden, this album finds Robin further exploring his unique world; one of delicate harp compositions, glissando & deep drones. Soundscapes for daydreamers of this & other worlds."

Artist:	STONE BREATH
Title:	A Silver Thread To Weave The Seasons (Expanded)
Label:	HAND/EYE
Format:	2CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	H/E 033CD

"Originally released in 1998, now expanded to two CDs with essential bonus material. The first disc presents the original album, long out-of-print, in all its acid-forest-drone-mantra-folk glory. These songs are of earth & spirit love, sunlight splitting open, threatening clouds, trees & birds that talk, the smell of wet earth & the sting of rain on an upturned face, firebrands scattering columns of sparks into the red twilight. The second disc returns some lost songs to Stone Breath, adds some rare songs from compilation appearances and presents a previously-unreleased track featuring Fit & Limo."

Artist:	CROW TONGUE
Title:	Ghost:Eye:Seeker
Label:	HAND/EYE
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	H/E 034CD

"Crow Tongue's first full-length finds them summoning distant howls from the fog of night. Fingerpicked strings & Eastern instruments recall CT's musical heritage (the acid-folk of Stone Breath), but here they are layered with primitive homemade instruments, circuit-bent electronics & mantric drones. 'Ghost Eye Gaze' opens the album with a 5-part drone-raga, improvised to back a shamanic chant, pushing from free-folk to free-noise & back again. 'Seeker' follows in 2 parts with bass dulcimer & tablas leading into an electric swarmandal excursion. The album closes with 'Candle, Corpse, and Bell' where Crow Tongue shows their dub influence with guimbri & tabla-machine slowly spinning through the echochamber."
