Album Reviews
“A gripping work from the very first track, by writers whose bravery, honesty, and vivid proficiency add honor to the profession. There are events on this CD that the listener will find hard to forget, as rekindled emotions light up their mind.”
Samuel Taveste
“Bold and brilliantly crafted”… a true neo-classic containing the aggressive yet fragile nature one would expect from this great, veteran song writing team….with every listen I find something new and delicious.”
Celia Lammar
“Gathering of the Faithful is steeped in deep dark patient energy rarely found in today’s instant popular music, society and spirit…”
Jonathon Freeman
Fantastic…it grasped my imagination and made me realize that somehow American music has taken a hit in quality since the age (that music)…accessing has replaced music collecting …even so… (Gathering of the Faithful) is one for my collection. …Cheers to Shark Island!

During the recording process of this CD it was decided that unlike our previous recording, we would limit ourselves to three or 4 takes, Beyond that we felt the energy, and the organic qualities of the songs suffered. We allowed ourselves to add additional tracks but not take away from the original takes.
The listener may find a mistake or two which could have easily been corrected but would have taken away from the integrity of the work. As humans, ones mistakes are as urgent as ones successes.
Deep listening of this work will surly create images of solidarity of the life experience, enjoy. |
