349. SETH FRIGHTENING "WAKE UP"


next up is an absolutely devastating track from the antipodes! the achingly introspective et off-kilter, ambling, acoustically-driven, deliriously schitzed-out, epic, psych-tinged lamentation Wake Up, from Wellington-based psych/noise folk crooner Sean Kelly aka Seth Frightening off his phenomenal new "B.Hoo" EP (2011).

"I'm in a coma,
oh what a loner
Sooner or later, I'll die
Go outside."

there is definitely something going on with the water supply down there in Wellington, something has to be contributing to the significant amount of excellent music that is emerging there. perhaps it is from these 'poor' musicians consuming large quantities of moldy rye-bread, the ergot poisoning inducing tripped-out psychic states leading to the creation of heightened musical works, this is thought to have been a contributing factor in producing the 'surreal' et hallucinatory masterpieces of Brueghel et Bosch! it certainly demands further investigation!

highly recommended for fans of Syd Barret, Amen Dunes, Phil Elverum et Connan Mockasin ...




i'd strongly suggest getting yourself a copy of the stunning "B.Hoo" EP, it is out now on Sonorous Circle as a free digital download via bandcamp, why are you doing still reading, head over there now et check out this captivating three-song EP!
