My new seht CD dead bees ((the((quiet)earth))suite) has been out for a couple of months, and I've finally scared up a review! Gayle Brogan, a Scot of note and who runs the Boa Melody Bar music shop/distribution, said:
It's a while since we've had anything from Stephen Clover and this new album delivers with an opening monolithic drone masterpiece. It begins with an ebbing and flowing synth drone with ominous undertow; as the piece progressed the undertow starts to win out and it feels like the dark waves are overwhelming you. The second track is not quite drone-based but is a utterly focussed repetition of some jerky cinema-organ notes until they are submerged in an icy hiss. No-one else does this quite like Seht.
Yeah, yeah I know, one review and a small one at that -- whoop-de-shit. But that's just the way that it goes sometimes. I always enjoy reading what Gayle thinks of my stuff, though. In time, this page is where you'll be able to read other stuff about the album. And, you can still hear a sample from the album here.
Want a copy, anyone? Drop me a line..

I'm out of town for a few days, and normal activity here may not resume until my return.

I like your bracketsses. It's how I'd write all the time, if it didn't make me look like a fuck. (Y'know how you get started on a parenthetical (and suddenly you're thinking about the difference between parentheseseses and bracketsses (and how humans have to force their affectations into print in this interwebland (or come across like a drone))) and before you know it you're 8 tiers deep and you need the 733t code reading softwarez to format all your indentsses)
