In collaboration with UK label Library of the Occult, NPNB presents the latest installment of Tales From the Library of the Occult. With a short story by English comics writer John Reppion and narration by UK voiceover artist Peter Baker. NPNB provide the score for a sweet-but-creepy, femme fatale parable in the '70s English folk horror style. It's a sound steeped in the Giallo horrorscapes of Goblin, the pagan-pastoral janglings of Pentangle, and the cloud-obscured soundtracks of a pre-Dark Side Pink Floyd. Side A gives you the whole story, as narrated by the deeply sonorous tones of Peter Baker, with the band's score serving as backdrop for Reppion's tale of hallucinations in the English countryside. Side B brings the music to the forefront, allowing one's mind to wander and create its own adventure. Pressed on honey-colored vinyl and with a gatefold sleeve that includes art by Suspirialand and read along text of the tale, the record is available in the US via Nolan's Bandcamp page and in the UK from Library of the Occult.

My favourite of the lockdown era livestreams. The Lev Sessions and Red Rocks ones are great too, but Big Sur made "Mutilator Defeated At Last" click for me after I'd struggled with it for a while - those versions of 'Rogue Planet', 'Poor Queen' and 'Withered Hand' are so good, as is 'Gholü' and 'Gelatinous Cube'. The encore of Black Flag covers bang hard as shit too.
Also worth a mention are the bonus non-album Panther Rotate experiments at the start of the livestream; an interesting warm-up. Xtra Happy

This album will forever reminds me of the Cowichan Valley, driving back roads while the seasons change. Some real bang'n folky/acoustic metal riffs in here. The beautiful contrast between new and old Osees is quite phenomenal. Ky Ren/Aid An
