Spoiler for hey look it's my album:

The album is finally starting to come along and it's sounding good so far. Recording is a pain in the ass because I have no idea how to properly produce or mix, but I'm just recording my v1.0 tracks right now so I can go in and make them cleaner and more intricate later. So far I have 2 of 9 tracks with next to all the base tracking done besides drums.

Love the cover; never really checked your music out before though, I'll change that soon.

Thanks dude! The new album is way more polished and "song" orientated than anything I've done before, but if you like drone and ambient music at all then you should like the stuff I have out.

I've really dug some of your folk punkier stuff, like that Chief of Police single and that Death Grips cover, so I'm definitely down with this.

I'm actually working on a lo-fi folk album on my own. Keep y'all updated, but here's a thing: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7J...p=docslist_api

Will check this out for sure.

Also the new album is closer to the Empty House demos then anything I guess so not really folk-punk, but closer to my "folk" stuff, or at least what I imagined that album being if it had ever gotten past the rough demos that I had. Lots of acoustic and electric guitars, pianos, vocals harmonies, electronic experiments, a long form sound experiment mixed with spoken word and synth textures. It's the grandest thing I've ever attempted to create and also taking forever to make (a year and a half).

[Mondo Bungle]

More straightforward, raw black metal leading into huge drone. I think I improved the drums a lot here, everything is much fuzzier and badass. What do you think?

Idle Grounds - To the Shimmering Grove

This here album is a split between Mondo and I. Four shorter tracks of mine are sandwiched between two longer tracks of his. I think it's a great combination of our styles and is a fun, varied experience to listen to. Give it a shot and let us know how you feel about it!

A Latin infused Chamber folk track. A bit of a free jazz/post rock influence. Would love some feedback xxx

Very cool.
Wouldn't be out of place on Ultravisitor.
Your whole sound has gotten much more organic and mature in a pretty short time.
I do feel like some additional element, something that would really bring the whole thing home is missing, but I guess you could say that about pretty much everything.

Cheers man. I know what you're saying about an additional element, I tried layering other stuff in there, but nothing really worked better than letting the guitar take prominence.
