Wovenhand Star Treatment

$25.99 USD

Description
The music of Wovenhand and songwriter/multi-instrumentalist David Eugene Edwards has always had an unparalleled intensity. Edwards rich, billowing and emotive voice is always the driving force of his music, but its catapulted by his spellbinding ability to transform instruments that many people might consider mundane relics be it banjo, accordion, lesser-known folk instruments from around the world, or even an electric guitar into devices of dark fury and poignant beauty. From the apocalyptic revivification of antique Americana of 16 Horsepower in the 90s to the threadbare balladry of Wovenhands early releases, Edwards music has maintained its celestial heaviness as it evolved. But now in its current incarnation, Wovenhand is a band that fully expands that power with exacting and inventive skill. Its a sound so distinctive and compellingly crushing that even the heaviest of metal bands cant match. Wovenhands current lineup includes guitarist Chuck French, bassist Neil Keener (both of Planes Mistaken For Stars) and drummer Ordy Garrison, now joined by piano/synth player Matthew Smith (Crime & The City Solution). Star Treatment was recorded at Steve Albinis legendary Electrical Audio in Chicago with engineer Sanford Parker, who also helmed Wovenhands 2014 album Refractory Obdurate. While Wovenhand ought to be a familiar name to anyone interested in forward-thinking music, the album title Star Treatment isnt a reference to our celebrity culture obsession. Rather, its a clever reference to concepts of astrolatry, or humanitys enduring interest in the stars of the night sky. Its ethereal in its concept, Edwards explains. There are many layers, as always. Ive been paying attention to the stars in the sky and in literature, and its a theme throughout the album. Throughout Star Treatment, Wovenhand deftly merge the outer reaches of rock and world folk sounds with increasing urgency and force.
