HALL NATHAN & THE SINIST - CD KRAKEN OF ROATH PARK LAKE

Popis - KRAKEN OF ROATH PARK LAKE:
The Sinister Locals is a psychedelic collective formed in 2017 as a side project from Soft Hearted Scientists, who have been on a long hiatus but will be returning with a brand new studio album in 2022. So far the Sinister Locals have released 5 albums. Before the release of the 6th Sinister Locals album in September 2022, this seemed to be the right time to release the first retrospective compilation of releases by Nathan Hall and the Sinister Locals, drawing tracks from all 5 vocal based albums: 'Effigies' (2017), 'Tunguska Tydfil' (2018), 'Scattersparks' (2019), 'On The Blink' (2020) and 'Pointing Paw' (2021). "However, to give the record a twist we unleashed Soft Hearted Scientists producer Frank Naughton on the 'Mute Effigies Soundtracks' instrumental album to create a very trippy song suite that is just short of 20 minutes long.
We said: "We know these songs too well so surprise us." He went to town on the tracks, editing them as he wanted to, and adding a few lovely ambient transitions and the result became 'The Kraken Of Roath Park Lake.' The title was inspired by my walks around the lake with my niece, to whom I tell so many ridiculous stories. She knows they're made up but she likes them. It was also inspired by reading about for example Greek myths and overlaying them on the most mundane aspects of modern day Cardiff. Mythology begins in your own back yard."
