"SONGBREAD/ANOTHER OCEAN" by BIRD BY SNOW (Cassette)

This is the cassette tape version of the LP & CD we released in 2009. This version was not actually released by us, it was made by an awesome young label called Kalligrammofon in Sweden. This album was recorded on cassette so, in a way, this is actually the purest way you cas recieve this music.

A new calf sparkles in the field at dawn with after-birth upon her. Standing strong and brave with wobbly legs in a precarious world. With totally fearless surrender she steps forward, still wet from the inner universe of the before birth being. With the same naked abandon we offer this 3rd long-player by Bird By Snow. Ten free-pop-mantras, ancient-babies of modern song.

The most fertile Bird By Snow album (so far). In this record-world we find BBS harvesting perspectives in an old-growth forest of ontology & swimming joyfully in wide-wonder-waters of multi-instrumentalism. Cellos, drones, pianos, field-recordings, tape-collage & all manner of drumming, strumming & singing confer and conspire here. Many of these songs have been two years in the making, grown and regrown on musical tours through the generous world. Songs with fresh-washed faces, and crow’s feet in the corners of their eyes.

The LP comes with a poster of poetry, and a hand-made booklet of extenssive notes and openings... the tape does not, but the notes are online right here.
