SECRET DRUID SOCIETY - 'Restless' CD (First Fallen Star)
Long after we are all dead and gone, the planet will continue to go about its business. For aeons before humans existed and for aeons after we are extinct, Earth will cycle onward through seemingly endless ages, barely aware that we existed at all. Devoid of any form of life as we narrowly define it, the allegedly inanimate forces and physical features of this planet possess a life all their own! Rivers, oceans, volcanoes, the wind, the rain, the drifting snow, the erosion of rock, the eruption of mountain ranges - all representative of the activity, the vitality, the life possessed by the planet! The duo that form Secret Druid Society carefully carved, moulded and eroded drones and minimal dark ambient soundscapes, finally recording what had evolved from the process, in order to tell a story not of human misery, not of an apocalypse, but of what Earth has always done and will continue to do for periods of time wholly unfathomable by the human mind. Ltd x 500 copies in a digipak.
