A Shimmering Beast

Metronomicon Audio are releasing an EP i recorded in Oslo a little while back. It comes in the form of a memorial coin and/or digital download.

It’s also the last thing i’ll be doing as ‘Glaciers’

It was in the islands, hills, fjords and of course glaciers (I chose the name after visiting Nigardsbreen in Sogn og Fjordane) of north-west Norway that I found something to write about. Up until that point I had been in various bands, and was bored with what I was doing musically. My writings and thinking from my time wandering around Norway became the basis for a small collection of songs which I recorded back in the UK, and which lies at the heart of all the Glaciers material. Through my interest at that time in Norwegian art and music, one of the first songs I made ended up on Metronomicon 4.0, and now the very last collection of songs is ending up on the label too.

You can buy it here https://meau.bandcamp.com/album/a-shimmering-beast

I’ll be in Oslo on the 28th June performing a small launch with Center of the Universe at Izakaya in Oslo.
