WEREJU - 'Through The Depths Of Unknowing' 2 x CD (Electric Requiems)
Cathal Rodgers hails from County Offaly, in the very heart of Ireland. Here, under the guise of Wereju, he presents a double disc of Dark Ambient and drone / doom soundscapes, described by the artist himself as sounding like the "Ageless drifting melancholia of an abandoned planet". File next to peers such as Aidan Baker, Northaunt, Fear Falls Burning etc. Double jewelcase with textured artwork. Very nice piece indeed!
