Petrels "Jörð "2016 UK Experimental,Drone,Post Rock,Electronic

Let us go forth, the tellers of tales, and seize whatever prey the heart longs for, and have no fear. Everything exists, everything is true, and the earth is only a little dust under our feet. This quote, from W.B. Yeats’ The Celtic Twilight: Faerie and Folklore, is the launch point for the latest Petrels album and serves as an overture. Oliver Barrett is a storyteller, communicating his tales through string, drone and elongated tone. If the earth is only “A Little Dust”, then the opening track seems to say: Waste no time. Tell tales. Jörð is the artist’s return to ancient mythology, stepping back from the speculative sci-fi visions of Flailing Tomb, and its interconnected tales operate as an anthology. the-long-manJörð is the Norse goddess who personifies the earth and gives birth to Thor. The cover depicts a sleeping giant, perhaps forgotten, perhaps only resting; time passes differently for immortals. To such beings, land belongs to no one and to all: “Terra Nullius.” The earth beneath our feet is simply earth, the rolling drums a reflection of the rolling hills, the woodwinds providing voice to the breeze, the lyrics rising like prayers. The forest spirit “Waldgeist” flickers and dances and mourns, sending urgent signals across the plains to “The Long Man” of Wilmington: come quickly, friend. Come to our aid. Our sister has fallen asleep. The music imagines the Long Man stretching, beginning his strides, the goddess hearing his footsteps, softly opening her eyes. And what then? Will man be but a glimmer of a memory when the old gods awaken? When “The Last Shard Falls”, is it the shard of hope, the shard of conflict, the shard of illusion? Synthesized squeals and squalls battle for dominance in a digital field. The track hearkens back to Haeligewielle‘s “Canute”, as does the closer, “Seithenyn Sleeps”. Waves of sound advance, clutching the sand for traction, until they flow over the banks of the sonic field. As in “Canute”, the sound is intentional ~ in Welsh folklore, Seithenyn is charged with protecting the realm of Gwyddno from the encroachment and corrosion of the sea. Yet he chooses to ignore the danger, drowning wariness in liquor and sleep. When the ocean inevitably claims its own, a reputation is ruined and a kingdom is lost; below the sea, the bells of the drowned churches still toll. “Seithernyn Sleeps” is an aural reflection of these bells and of Yeats’ words. The tale is still being told. (Richard Allen)....~ Oliver Barrett returns with his first Petrels album in three years; The Dusk Loom. Having put out a steady album-a-year since 2011, culminating in 2016’s Jörð, Barrett decided to take a step back from the project for a while, not wanting to releasing albums out of habit and wanting to be sure that there was something new to say. The result is at once the most expansive but also personal Petrels release to date. Three years in the making, The Dusk Loom builds on the eclectic sonic palette of Barrett’s back catalogue but brings these sounds into sharper focus than ever before. Those hoping for the all-enveloping dynamics and textures of past Petrels releases will not be disappointed, but over the ten parts of The Dusk Loom, Barrett puts this trademark euphoric aural scree to work in new and unexpected ways. Drawing on myriad influences as fans of Barrett’s have come to expect, the resulting themes of the album are perhaps woven more intricately than before. In The Dusk Loom, Barrett takes an evocative approach to storytelling that asks the listener to draw their own meanings from the clues and references running through the sounds and words. Finding inspiration in mythology - both ancient and new, the work and writing of Remedios Varo and William Blake, memory, death and cosmology to name just a few, Barrett pulls these seemingly disparate strands together into something that is unmistakably Petrels but which also points the way to something new. Petrels is the solo project of Somerset-based musician and artist, Oliver Barrett. Since releasing his debut, Haeligewielle, in 2011, Petrels has toured across Europe and shared a stage with the likes of Jóhann Jóhannsson, Tim Hecker, FIRE!, Nate Young (Wolf Eyes), Trouble Books, Demdike Stare, Nadja, and Hans-Joachim Roedelius (Cluster). “Petrels sidesteps the chilliness found in much of the music of his peers, replacing it instead with an almost spiritual ecstasy, his ravishing synths and almost choral vocal treatments calling out in cosmic, wide eyed wonder at the universe.” – Paul Margree, Louder Than War....~ Electronic/ Experimental. Following on from 2015's Flailing Tomb LP, which appeared in numerous 'best of the year' lists, Petrels the solo project of London-based musician and illustrator, Oliver Barrett returns with new album, Jörð. From the ethereal choral build of 'A Little Dust' (adapted from words by W. B. Yeats), to the euphoric aural scree of 'The Last Shard Falls', and the driving, long-form song structures, interwoven arrangements and mythological trappings of 'The Long Man', previous listeners of Barrett's work will find much to welcome in a record that builds on the distinctive, ecstatic Petrels sound. Elsewhere, Barrett teases this sound into new shapes; 'Terra Nullius' takes an oscillating woodwind cluster and hangs from it a defiant and densely constructed (almost)pop song; 'Waldgeist' slowly unravels a deceptively simple string refrain in an elegiac and gently expanding, haunted pastoral arrangement; and 'Seithenyn Sleeps' encapsulates the joyously overwhelming live Petrels sound into a swirling, enveloping closer. Drawing together the numerous strands of Petrels releases so far whilst confidently weaving them together into something new that promises even more to come, Jörð is another singular release from this restlessly inventive and inventively restless artist. Since releasing his debut Haeligewielle in 2011, Petrels has toured across Europe and shared a stage with the likes of Tim Hecker, FIRE!, Nate Young (Wolf Eyes), Trouble Books, Demdike Stare, Nadja, and Hans-Joachim Roedelius (Cluster). Having also collaborated with and provided remixes for artists as varied as Duane Pitre, Brassica, Talvihorros and Max Cooper, Petrels' output is proving to be thrillingly eclectic and unpredictable. LP thick sleeves + thick printed inner sleeves, different vinyl colors...~ With his track 'Orpheus'' from the last album "Flailing Tomb", Oliver Barrett alias Petrels heralded a new quality of his scapes with impressive sounds, as this one with guest singer Never Sol almost became a song with Magmaian proportions. Also on his new album "Jörð' there are again vocal pieces, but this time they were sung by the musician himself, with which he has again taken over the sole control of almost everything with this work. In this context, a 'Terra Nullius' almost tends towards a pop song. Almost, if it weren't for the extraordinary arrangements, lavishly furnished here with woodwinds and strings, which elude any conservatism and any "normality". So 'Terra Nullius' almost fit on one of the later Talk Talk albums. Only the later beats make a song like this again archetypically Petrels-like. With the epic 'The Long Man' there is something like the 'Orpheus Part II' – transcendent, massive, very big!....~
