Sunken Nightfall by Shirley Collins, Brian Catling & Matthew Shaw

Inspired from a moment shared at Waylands Smithy in Oxfordshire.
Giving voice to the earth and stones.

Lyrics

Sunken nightfall folds the clouds against
the sound of our departing.
Voices suddenly spent against the Smithy
Pressing age.
leaking us back to the car, the roads,
to the dense flicker of the living.
away from the inner ground
buried in the knowledge of too much,
and the stones
The very stones?

That after we are gone
and the land is gone,
the molten core shrugged
as if to a feather off
will unhitch their roots
and fall through the illimitable night
without the faintest recall
of resting before
our little bones
for a bit
of a day.

Sound artist.

“Matthew is one of the most fascinating figures on the UK drone underground, collaborating with thinkers like Brian Lavelle (as Fougou) and Andrew Paine (as The Blue Tree) while releasing music under his own name and the Tex La Homa pseudonym via a host of labels.
