Wovenhand

Looks like we've got a new album from Denver's goth-doom-metal-Americana-post-punk band Wovenhand coming our way in September.  That's a good thing.  Listen to "Come Brave" below and grab the upcoming "Star Treatment" LP from Sargent House.  Fans of Swans and certain eras of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds should definitely check it out.

Wovenhand

I had never heard of Denver band Wovenhand until about a month ago, just as snippets and tastes of the group's new album "Refractory Obdurate" were starting to surface on various blogs...and whoa, have i been missing out on something spectacular.  The band started as an offshoot of alt-country act 16 Horsepower, and have been churning out records for the last 13 years or so.  The band blends the aforementioned alt-country with gloomy folk, elements of ragged Americana, experimental metal, blues stomp, post, prog, and punk rock, and an old school vibe akin to channeling the Druids or ancient mystics.  In short, it's an absolutely amazing record.  Fans of Swans will be swimming in this...and you should too.  Get the album from Deathwish Inc, and listen to "Good Shepard" below.
