'As They Fly Into Darkness, Only Black Feathers Remain To Wipe Away Our Tears'. (7 inch vinyl.) This is the first Somnium to appear on vinyl which Drone Records in Germany is putting out as a limited addition pressing of 350 copies on multi-coloured transparent vinyl and comes in a hand embossed and stenciled cover front and back. The back sides also included a fragment of a hand written poem, by Opion Somnium, which is then numbered in sequence from 1 to 300 out of 300 copies. This two track ep is to be played at 33 rpms and delivers about 16 minutes of music in all. A very dark and moody orchestration of drones. |
