Black Flowers are Alex Neilson & Lavinia Blackwall (Trembling Bells), Mick Flower (Vibracathedral Orchestra), and Alasdair Roberts set sail on 30 minute+ experimental folk rock tour de force. Got your attention?
Huge opening - Calvary Cross - sets the bar high: slow burn a la Richard Thompson, building to crescendo guitar organ psych jam with Neilson pounding away like Mattacks' and Bonham's feral nephew. Remainder alternates between updated traditional song structure and iconoclastic unscaffolding of form, leaving behind music infinitely expansive, free and joyous. Rise up and demand more.
