Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded entirely by Peter Silberman before expanding the project into a full band, this brief, self-released album is an intimate, cosmic meditation. Exploring themes of insignificance against the vastness of the universe, the nine ambient-folk tracks bleed seamlessly into one another, foreshadowing the immense emotional weight of their subsequent masterpiece 'Hospice'.
