    Refers to the feeling you get when touching an artefact that was made more than 7,000 years ago, in this case stone rock carvings in the Cheviot hills in Northumberland.
    Spread out across the top of the hills lie huge stone tables carved with many petroglyphs weaving in and out of each other.
    The sites where you find the carvings are all places with fantastic views across the hillsides and lowlands. Places of great beauty and serenity.

    There is a sense of “being out of time” at these sites. You are separated from yourself and instead feel a sense of being part of a greater whole.

    A spirituallity, if you will.
    The sense of a connection with our ancestors and being part of a continuity.
    looking backwards and forwards ..a long view across.

    Bisclaveret – Theu Anagnosis


    Bisclaveret – Theu Anagnosis
    Label: Zoharum, Steinklang Industries
    Format: CD, Album, black cover
    Country: Poland
    Released: 26 May 2014
    Style: Dark Ambient

    Ritual Dark-Ambient with mantric vocals, Piano, Sitar, Tablas, Tibetan Flutes and Bells. The Atmosphere reminds to some passages from BODYS RICE’s brilliant “Hatesville” album, as well as to the fantastic but long forgotten OMALA album, but much darker and more Ambient.

    BISCLAVERET returns with a new album entitled “Theu Anagnosis”. It is a concept album, similarly to the previous 2 albums. In 8 compositions here the musicians captured a mystical-philosophical treatise of sorts. The first part of it, namely “An Introduction to Reading God”, was presented on 7″ vinyl split with Feine Trinkers bei Pinkels Daheim. By means of lyrics and music the duo creates apparently surreal own world of sounds devoid of “here and now.” They propose their own vision of the Absolute which is seen through the eyes of mystics, madmen and free thinkers. The band invites us on a psychedelic wandering into the depth of ego, on a metaphysical adventure in the world of music painted with various colours, shapes and stories. Dreams of a madman? Calls of a scholar? Experience of a hermit? It all melts in a lava of many cultures. Yet here it creates a crystal, but heterogenic image.
