(Some facts for recording nerds:

- "Healing River" is made from live takes of the core trio and then the group vocals, while "I come & Stand" had each element recorded separatedly.)

We identify only half-jokingly as “the world’s first blackgrass band.” We play old murder-ballads and other spooky traditional folk songs, with some bright and sentimental spots thrown in for contrast. Some days we’re acoustic purists. Some days we like to corrupt traditional folksongs with bits of black metal, ambient, and noise music. We’re trying to make folk music dangerous again.
