THE UNCONSCIOUS ECHO

I’ve been greatly impressed with this record from 2018 by Cinder Well – The Unconscious Echo. I have been listening to it all week.

It’s very dark, doomy and atmoshperic folk, like a mixture of Lankum and Godspeed! You Black Emperor with some of the weirder parts of British 70s folk rock (bands like Trees and Pentangle), with vocals that remind me of American dark-folk singers like Allysen Callery (her album The Song the Songbird Sings is well worth checking out).

They describe themselves as ‘doomy folk from the depths’ which was enough to get me hooked.
