The Blurred And Darkened Sky Forever Distant 39:06

about

An improvised piece from a Facebook Live performance that took place 8:30pm on 03/21/2020, occurring at Ghost Salon in Hickory Withe, TN. EQ'd but otherwise unedited, bad notes and background noise and all. Magpie (Zachary Corsa) played Fender Jaguar, Carvin XV112, many pedals, and many tapes, samples, and toys. Denny Wilkerson Corsa provided technical and gear assistance. This piece was recorded via Zoom H2 and edited and mixed in GarageBand. This work is free if you want it, but donations are always appreciated, especially with what everyone is facing right now financially.

'Massachusetts Graves' is a play on the term 'mass graves', which felt grimly apropos considering the ongoing pandemic. Also, Massachusetts is my birthplace and where I was raised until the age of eleven. The cover design above is an edited detail from a vintage travel poster (Alaska). We dedicate these two works to the memory of Mr. Kenny Rogers (1938 - 2020), and to every victim of COVID-19 and of our country's wicked and inhumane 'healthcare system'. Requisat.

Please remain indoors. Do not be alarmed. It's only the apocalypse.

Whatever Truthful Understanding
by droneroom

B.E. Conley, armed with trusty Tele and lap steel, carves weary fever dreams and dust-demon mirages from raw materials and surplus entropy. The world is and isn't beautiful. This is our small victory. Nonconnah

Toil
by Laudanum Quilt

Half-fucked drone incantations and bleeding-limb fuzz rot. Scarred pagan struggle against or alongside darkness. This is the future we'll inherit. It's a cathartic one. The resurrection falls upon us. Nonconnah

partial shadows
by aster

Casting out spirits in the name of science. Learning lab dust on cassette, Erlenmeyer flasks and mysterious sunshine. Something watches from beyond the frame. The world stills. Lovely dread seeps in. Nonconnah
