Out of the white-forested wilds of Western Canada comes the dungeon debut of a secluded siren's shadow self: Uilos. Named for star-like flowers found growing on graves around the Gate Of Silver during the journey into Gondolin, the project's inaugural volume threads 37 minutes of mystic, mournful instrumentals into a shimmering saga of hidden hermits, enticing dragons, and headless knights. Each of the eight tape-hazed tracks wavers between woe and wonder, moon rises viewed from craggy peaks, ageless quests of isolation, synthesizer, guitar, and grief: Dark Night Of The Soul. Numinous blooms for final resting places. “They blossom in all the seasons of the year, and grow where dead men rest." –Gandalf User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
