| Breathe Stone | |
Project of Pennsylvania based Timothy Renner, also in Mourning Cloak, Stonebreath, Spectral Light & Moonshine Firefly Snakeoil JamboreeREVIEW of BREATHE STONE "Hex Thistle" CD Wow ! Another project from Timothy Renner (Mourning Cloak, Stone Breath, Spectral Light & Moonshine Firefly Snakeoil Jamboree). "Breath Stone" is none other than another aspect from Stone Breath, with more textured soundscapes, with some electrified effects, very much creating a magical mood with a feel for nature, like cold wind and mist surrounding a fire with warm voices and instrumentation. Most parts of the album are songs, which come close to the Stone Breath and the M.F.S.Jamboree style, only with more textured sounds, from loop like electric guitars, and beautiful instrumental background sounds and arrangements, more multi dimensional. Magical ! |

| BREATHE STONE - Hex Thistle | |
In 1995 when Timothy Renner (Mourning Cloak, Spectral Light & Moonshine Firefly Snakeoil Jamboree) formed Stone Breath, he was primarily interested in acoustic music. He promised himself at that time Stone Breath would always remain an acoustic band. As time wore on, members of Stone Breath, including Timothy, expressed interest in doing music which included electric instruments and effects. Thus, Breathe Stone was born. The songs on "Hex Thistle" are unlike anything else Timothy has recorded. Romantic and decadent, even Gothic, yet still deeply earthen. Darkly psychedelic folksongs peppered with reedy drones and aetheric swirls. Songs of love, God, and death. Diverse instrumentation lends to the strange sonic texture of this release. Acoustic and electric guitars, vocals, dulcimer, bouzouki, harmonium, hand-percussion, banjo-dulcimer, fiddle, and the glasstamboura (an instrument of Timothy's own invention), all woven together to create a musical hex sign. Folk music and folk magic. Tracks: |
