For lyrics/download: http://lunamoth.bandcamp.com/album/shadows-casting-trees About this record: Technically, this album is an experiment in the alternate tuning CGCGCC. Thematically, it is a concept album in which the ancient epic poem "Metamorphoses" by Ovid is superimposed onto the canvas of the past year of my life, which has been defined largely by the discovery of previously unknown territory of mind through shamanistic plant healing in the Peruvian Amazon and the subsequent recognition of unconditional love. The idea behind Shadows Casting Trees is boundaries and forms shifting, the juxtaposition of sea and sky, the interplay of shadow and light, cosmic paradigms reversing, the simple beauty of all things reverting to their source. The album artwork was designed in collaboration with Oklahoma artist Tiffany Nachelle Edwards. The lyrical themes of the album inspired the creation of the painting that would soon become the cover, and vice versa.
