Wrecking

LP version. Snow Ghosts return with a Wrecking, the follow-up to their 2013 debut a Small Murmuration (HTH 006 CD/LP). Influenced by the shadowy elements of British folklore and the heavier side of experimental noise, Snow Ghosts' bewitching and intoxicating sound combines a disparate array of references. Ross Tones (aka Throwing Snow) and Hannah Cartwright (aka Augustus Ghost) are now joined by multi-instrumentalist Oliver Knowles (EXES) to pool their individual inspirations, ideas, and styles. Focused more on melody and instrumentation than rhythm, a Wrecking ebbs and flows to mirror it's vocal meanings; the guitars reflect the sea with panning and reverb effects while a haunting electric violin slips in and out of the record's consciousness. Mastered by Matt Colton, Music Producers' Guild 2013 Mastering Engineer of the Year, at Alchemy Mastering. Both CD and LP editions presented in bespoke PVC sleeve with spot varnish pattern. LP pressed on 180-gram vinyl.
