Album Notes & Community Reviews

Plunging deep into the terrifying, unhinged depths of the British wyrd-folk underground, Jan Dukes de Grey created an overwhelmingly intense, highly complex acoustic nightmare. 'Mice and Rats in the Loft' is a remarkably progressive, beautifully pastoral yet intensely anxious psychedelic folk masterpiece, brimming with deeply dark, distinctly forest-bound occultism.
