This album is a deep personal journey into the heart of #NativeAmericanfolklore and #mythology. Blending traditional, rhythmic Tribal percussion and chant with diverse modern genres, The Thread of the Ancestors explores 15 unique creatures and spiritual concepts from the terror of #theSkinwalker and the desperation of #theWendigo, to the cosmic longing for #theStarPeople and the profound duty of the Sun Holder.
From the chilling deception of #Spearfinger to the transcendent hope of #theGhostDance, this collection is a testament to the emotional endurance of the human spirit. Each track is a standalone chapter of collective survival and individual reckoning
It is a shamanic soundscape that weaves together tales of collective survival, isolation, defiance, and creation. This is the sound of ancient stories being told through a prism of contemporary, powerful sonic force.
Enter #thesweatlodge and follow the Thread; the journey is brutal, and the sound is massive.
