SCULPTRESS-THIS PHRASE APPEALS TO YOU, CDR, 2005, UK



Drifting in and out of focus on striated layers of twinkling and droning esoterica, This Phrase Appeals To You is another evocative stab at the eternal cosmic sublime from the sector of the UK freak folk scene aligned with the likes of Ben Reynolds and Ashtray Navigations' Phil Todd; this particular project being spearheaded by their regular associate Andy Jarvis and featuring his sis Mikarla on vocals. Under the banner of Sculptress, this crew unfurl bleary rounds of horsehair scrape and harmonium wheeze offset by spare improvisational tactics, the sum total carrying more than a little whiff of 70's Swedish underground musical traditions.

  2. If you like this, I still have some copies left of the 2nd (and even better) Sculptress CD-R, a CD-R by side project Saboteuse and an LP by the pre-Sculptress band (with me in it) called A Warm Palindrome - please email ashtraynavigations@hotmail.com for info - many thanks PHIL
