about

The opening track is the opening to a cave, or in this case a tunnel, in a place called Tunnel, where we recorded the vocals and most of the percussion for this song. We wanted the track to be of the place where we recorded it in Launceston, Tasmania, and so we packed up the car and went in pursuit of sound. Tash stood at one end of Tunnel’s tunnel and a microphone was placed a good way down inside the throat of the hill. She opened her mouth and birds came flying out in all the chaos and majesty of the natural world.

The rattling, metallic windings of the clock and iron clangs were recorded on huge disused gears at the abandoned power station at Duck Reach. We shouted into pipes, we pounded them, we captured their resonating aftermath. The sounds of all those lost things, the years.

TH€ FOLDING UNFOLDING is an overture for the record to come. The first glimmers of history. An erotic but frightening dream; the siren song grown dark and gnarly. At once of the place and yet alien. Natural yet synthesised. Of the status quo but anathema to it. Part industrial, but folk. Or is the industrial our version of folk here in this place? Are these gears our instruments? Are the screams into iron tunnels our tradition?

This is our twisted lovesong to a culture we are disconnected from. A crossing of the divide, for the listener to cross, to embrace, to be embraced. This is the way, step inside.
