Alrihkh This is a very good album to put on, say, a lazy Saturday morning after you’ve slept in too long...it’s a good, laidback, slightly mystical re-intro to the world—the pleasant antonym of a demanding alarm clock. Comprised mostly of folky, acoustical guitar with a whimsical sprinkling of psychedelic sounds, this is an ambient treat. Bury Me in the Desert reminds me of Black Mountain Side by Led Zep, & the last song sounds like a Sunday School song. Thank you, RTWM, for this! 7.5+/10. Favorite track: Dance of Regret.

timh666 (Gwent Stefani) RTWM, fantastic as always. A softer, less heavy release than the previous ones but still an absolute banger!

Connor Benson The range and elements Duncan/Cam put into their music is phenomenal. This one is filled with feel good folky jams!

Owls 02:36
Fade into night All wrap up tight Darkness swells Sleepless dwell Most heads lay down All eyes close now My mind is wired Tales of death Feast's last breath Owls speak to me From fortress trees Glide through the black Shatter and crack

Oh the plague did fall upon us all And we locked ourselves at home All the shops were closed and our hair did grow As we waited to be told When this nightmare would be lifted From our thinly veiled sleep And confusion did surround us We saw life's fragility And the days they stretch to weeks And oh the weeks stretched into months And they told us no more kissing Yeah we were told we could not touch And the ice-rink was identified As a temporary morgue And the headlines that were published read You may not kiss the dead Oh you may not kiss the dead Our anxiety and fear it grew And the suicides did rise The uncertainty that faced us all Was a spectre of the night So we held onto those whom we loved And we spoke to our old friends To drown out those ghostly calls of death With our love and humanity Oh the days they stretch to weeks And oh the weeks stretched into months And they told us no more kissing Yeah we were told we could not touch And the ice-rink was identified As a temporary morgue And the headlines that were published read You may not kiss the dead Oh you may not kiss the dead

Underneath the forest's shade Motivated by the shame Please the gods of old and new And let the guilt devour you Your body rattles and it shakes Anxiety you can't escape You watched those bridges set ablaze The fire swallowed all the snakes Feel the soil on your skin The earth that you have sunken in Return your body to the worms And leave your misery to burn

He's a mighty good leader He's a mighty good leader He's a mighty good leader All the way All the way lord From up to heaven He's a mighty good leader All the way He led my mother He led my mother He led my mother All the way All the way lord From up to heaven He led my mother All the way He's a mighty good leader He's a mighty good leader He's a mighty good leader All the way All the way lord From up to heaven He's a mighty good leader All the way
