This is Uncle Woe's 6th release.

In the early stages of writing and arranging this batch of songs, this was going to be a side project. Once everything was fleshed out enough to hear as a whole album though, it was obviously the next Uncle Woe record.

Enter Marc Whitworth (xsforeyesnoise.bandcamp.com) on drums; whose absolutely precise and articulate frantic mastery behind the kit immediately helped make this the most compelling and urgent Uncle Woe record to date.

Our thanks to Doomshire Tapes for finding this album fit for winding up on spools of brown gold; sweet, glorious analogue cassette tape.

Get your sludge doom stoner psychedelic post metal and rock sunglasses, shoes, socks and pants on (or take them all off if you prefer!), and allow yourself time to get comfortable and take this in one 40 minute sitting.

I don't really need to re-introduce Uncle Woe that much; the 'Well' EP is still really fresh on these pages after doing the rounds for nearly 4 months. There are plenty of nice words around the internet, 4 track videos and the EP on the Owlripper YouTube, so with no time to lose, waste or watch turn into memorial dust in front of our crying eyes, here is the album, featuring 2 previously heard tracks (different versions) and adding 5 other massive sounding parts to the overall equation.

An interesting read from Uncle Woe's Bandcamp about this release, more favourable than a long introduction from me:- "In the early stages of writing and arranging this batch of songs, this was going to be a side project. Once everything was fleshed out enough to hear as a whole album though, it was obviously the next Uncle Woe record.

The sludge vibe is a little more dialled in and concise on this one, with shorter songs that largely shy away from the more atmospheric, post-metal territory into which one might have come to expect an Uncle Woe release to wander. There was no need to take the time to set the mood with these songs; everything is just awful."
