I can tell I like latter-day Wovenhand more than you do, but I've also been confused by the move towards what seem like word collages drawn from Native American religion, the apocrypha, Egyptian funerary texts, and the Vedas.

"the move toward word collages drawn from Native American religion, the apocrypha, Egyptian funerary texts, and the Vedas." You say that like it's a bad thing! ;) If you imagine there is a golden thread running through his body of work, it makes a lot more sense, how it relates. That's what works for me anyway.

Apparently the functionality of the website that would let you fix an incorrect redirect used to exist, but it's been broken for years. Even the people who run Last.fm can't do anything about it.

I keep saying why he sounds so cool and familiar and ended up being side project from my favorite band 16 horsepower

Woven Hand has released 9 studio albums and has been going for 22 years. 16 Horsepower released 4 albums and were active for approximately 10 years. Woven Hand isn't a side project, it has been DEE's primary band, now into it's third decade.

Yeah but 16 horsepower made more superior music thats why this feels more like a side project to me

Ehhhhh….. that’s a pretty shite take, lol. 16HP was certainly more influential in the long-run (entire sub genres based on their sound) but it’s pretty hard to argue WH has crafted a far grander, deeper, more complex and more creative discography in terms of the music itself as well as the ideology and philosophy explored. Bottom: listen to more DEE period, but definitely listen to more WH

He's played that particular track several times over the years. I have a vague memory of reading an interview with DEE where he said he and Melora Creager of Rasputina had jammed together a few times, but it wasn't for public consumption.

Silver Sash is a dynamite!!! Favorite tracks "Acacia" and perhaps "Duat Hawk " and "8 of 9 ", but the entire record is very good. I like it very much. On first hearing it felt awkward, but It grew on me along the road. It hits very, very hard. David is not afraid to experiment with sound and that is what I like about his music since 16 Horsepower. A true master singer-songwriter of this age. God bless this man!

"Blush Music" is special. David's signature style of anthemic wonder-working-power songs + remarkably creative sound crafting, tons of unique textures and rich ambience. Extraordinary combo. Delightful beyond expectations.

Don't pretend to be a tough guy. It's clear that you're a sensitive man who needs attention.

David Eugene Edwards & Alexander Hacke release their album Risha 22.06.18 "Finally they found the time to record this astonishing piece of an album: “David and I have been admirers of each others work for some time. We first got to play together for The Glasshouse, a movie project initiated by my wife Danielle de Picciotto and during the brief resurrection of Crime & the City Solution all three of us were involved with. Shortly after I worked on Wovenhand’s Laughing Stalk album as a mixing engineer. We became close friends during these very diverse collaborations and started talking about creating music together, which would combine electronics with ethnical instruments and overdriven guitars with oriental rhythms and scales” Hacke says" http://label.glitterhouse.com/artists.php?show=40

There is still plenty of the folk sound on Star Treatment but Wovenhand have never made the same album twice. Which is a really good thing.

Refractory Obdurate and Star Treatment are quite alike in my mind. I admit I miss the folk as well.

They're alike because it is the first run of albums where Wovenhand have had a stable lineup. Star Treatment has the addition of a keyboard player. It's always going to sound like Wovenhand because DEE is the common thread through them all. Golden Blossom is a folk influenced song, Crook and Flail has Middle Eastern folk instruments and a hurdy gurdie. There are a couple of tracks on Star Treatment that have a relatively straight forward rockabilly influence, which is a first. Wovenhand haven't really done anything that could be called folk music since Consider the Birds (Down in Yon Forest is a traditional English folk carol which was recorded by Shirley Collins amongst others) and even then it's a stretch to call it folk music. I'm saying that as someone who listens to folk music. Most of the time when people talk about folk music they mean Acoustic music, which is not the same thing.

It seems that 'The Threshingfloor' recreates itself every other year, but not in a convincing way - musically speaking. On the other hand, 'Spirit' is always there with David, at lest i feel it... and cuz of that feel i pre-ordered vinyl, to give him a more intimate listen in my room, on my record player.

Total disappointment initially, it's a grower though. Crook & Flail is a big stand out.

DEE & his crew are once again on the hunt. Really stoked to hear the new material live.
