Smoke-Scented Mycelium

from They Are The Shield by Toby Driver

	/

Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
TD's melancholic masterpiece of progressive ballads, from one of the Lost Years. Featuring the dual violins of String Noise (Conrad and Pauline Kim Harris), the drums of Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Brian Chase, the piano playing of Kelly Moran, and Toby Driver's voice, guitar, and synths, these powerful songs stand among the best and the deepest in the composer's body of work. With this **zero shipping** option, you immediately will receive a digital download of the album, but you donate the CD back to the artist (no action needed on your part). In other words, we keep the CD but you keep the download. Thank you very very much for your kind support!

Hard to compete with They Are The Shield for me, but this stands up to it. Barriers Hymn might be the strongest emotional reaction I’ve had to a Driver piece since The Second Operation - so excellent. Eden Porter

Brilliant union of early music and rock. Strong Cardiacs vibes. I find a lot of chamber rock to be meandering and aimlessly angular. However this stuff is different, the compositions are extremely tight and diverse. The instrumentation is sparse and rickety, but has these brilliant flashes of grandiose orchestration, it's very balanced. I don't think I've heard a more successful integration of early music into modern forms before. Absolutely a modern masterpiece of progressive "weird" music. impressivelad
