Disintegrate into fuzz with Spectre Folk

Disintegrate into fuzz with Spectre Folk

Spectre Folk at Glasslands in early 2008

Spectre Folk is the primary solo moniker of Pete Nolan, perhaps best known for his rigorously cacophonous percussion as half of Magik Markers. 

Especially in contrast to that band's often harsh improvisations, Spectre Folk seems bathed delerious langour: ghostly washed-out Americana, slow-burning guitar noise, and a deep hazy gloaming of reverb and static. Enjoy a new track entitled "Sat Around for Peace," recently sent to my inbox and available for download below.

"Sat Around For Peace (This Time)" is off his new album, Compass, Blanket, Lantern, Mojo, an outing that offers eight forays into disolving psych-rock:

01  Falling Off the Map
02  Toot Toot!
03  Sat Around for Peace (This Time)
04  Ages Have Passed
05  Dusty's Rag
06  8 -foot Wings
07  Burning Bridge
08  Groovy Garbage, Man
