Harvestman - Triptych : Part Three *Pre-Order

Woven together from home studio recordings that span two decades, and with
some notable guest appearances including; The Bug, Douglas Leal of Deafkids,
Wayne Adams of Petbrick, Dave French of Yob and Sanford Parker, this final part of
the Harvestman Triptych seeks once again for a lost world, with the voice of poet
Ezra Pound extolling the virtues of "gather[ing] from the air a live tradition".
Cloudy Clear plus Black Galaxy effect vinyl in dub style jacket. Limited and Non-
Returnable.
At its heart, music has always been a questioning of inheritance – a dialogue with
predecessors and forebears, the forging of one’s own perspective in relation to
what has come before, and for some, a plunge into the boundless realms between.
For Steve Von Till, that process has always taken on an added dimension to become
the most sacred of tasks. Whether through the apocalyptic uprising of Neurosis, the
sonic deconstructions of their sister project, Tribes of Neurot, the invocatory
intimacy of his eponymous solo albums or his instrumental psychedelic reveries in
the guise of Harvestman, that dialogue has never just been with musical influences,
but with what underpins them: the primordial, elemental forces now banished to the
peripheries of our contemporary consciousness, yet still broadcasting a signal for
all who will listen.
Drawn to the megaliths, ruins and ancient sites mapped out along the British and
European mainland’s geographical and psychic landscapes, the folklore and
apocrypha forever resurfacing as portals from a rational world, Triptych is a
meditation forged from traces and residues, and an hallucinatory recollection of
artists who have tapped into that enduring otherworldliness embedded within us all.
It’s a dream diary narrating a passage through Summer Isle where Flying Saucer
Attack are wafting out of a window, a distant Fairport Convention are being remixed
by dub master Adrian Sherwood, celestial scanners Tangerine Dream are trying to
drown out Bert Jansch and Hawkwind are playing Steeleye Span covers, all prised
out of time yet bound to its singularity.
"Herne's Oak" provides seismic bass waves that physically halt the track in its

steps - giant footfalls as Herne's antlers themselves are dragged along a corridor.
Another curious and mysterious piece of British folklore brought to life by
Harvestman.
If Triptych is a multi- and extra-sensory experience, it extends to the remarkable
glyph-style artwork of Henry Hablak, a map of correspondences from a long-
forgotten ancient and advanced civilization. As with Triptych itself, it’s an echo from
another time, an act of binding, a guide to be endlessly reinterpreted, and a
signpost to the sacred that might not indicate where to look, but how.
Cover art is by Henry Hablak, who also designed the art for Part One and Part Two.
Part Three will be coming on October 17th's Hunter Moon.Part One was released on
the Pink Moon on 23rd April and Part Two was released on 21st July's Buck Moon.
