Based on : :' their live reworking of the album from 2019, it is like the ': ,: musical soundtrack to wandering through an unfamiliar English :, : forest under the influence of magic mushrooms. For where : :' Pastoral was angular and harsh, Deep England is haunting and ': ,: trippy and is really something special. One thing it isn't, :, : though, is hippy dippy. : :' ': ,: Opening with the sound of church bells, "Glory" brings in :, : recorders, ambient electronic drone and a female choir of pagan : :' plainsong like a hallucinatory witchy take on Wardruna's ': ,: schtick. It then moves on to "Folly", which starts in similar :, : territory before producer/mixer Marta Salogni starts tugging at : :' the musical threads and almost randomly pulling them out of the ': ,: song, as it falls apart piece by piece. "Throne" is more spaced :, : out, ethereal and disorientating, spinning a tuneful narcotic : :' web as Elizabeth Bernholz intones "I sit on the throne / I ': ,: gather your souls". :, : : :' Elsewhere, Gazelle Twin and NYX cover "Fire Leap", the ': ,: otherworldly pagan fertility song from The Wickerman, while :, : William Blake's "Jerusalem", which has been claimed by everyone : :' from The Fall and Emerson, Lake and Palmer to the Church of ': ,: England over the years, is reimagined as an acapella prayer, :, : drenched in reverb with an unobtrusive electronic drone : :' underlay. It stands in stark contrast to the chanted, ': ,: claustrophobic and gammon-baiting "Better in my Day". :, : : :' The title track is similarly bleak but earthy, primal but ': ,: cosmic, as it moves through the ether, casting its unsettling :, : spell before bringing things to an end with "Golden Dawn". Here, : :' the Green Man is finally summoned from the depths of creation, ': ,: as female voices float and entwine around him before burying him :, : in the fields and the woodland beyond the cities and the tarmac. : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 2 1 \/
