So, midsummer has passed. Do we at Cave Mouth care? Do we fuck. I did write the lyric 'witches, witches it's midsummer, cover yourselves in blood and flowers' on midsummer day when I took the portrait we've used as the song art. But I wrote the rest of the song, recorded the vocals, and Meghan… Continue reading Midsummer – A New Offering From Cave Mouth

But… Continue reading Hex By Cave Mouth : Album Artwork

Seventy-two full moons ago, I wrote the very first of the… Continue reading Sound(s) Of The Day : Cave Mouth
Meghan Wood, of atmospheric black metal project Crown Of Asteria, has to be one of THE most productive musicians out there. Seriously. And everything, everything she offers to the world is mesmerizingly good. I have been listening to her latest release Haruspex since yesterday, and folks, I just can't turn it off. All of the music… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Crown Of Asteria
There's absolutely nothing better than starting the week with new, dark sounds. In this instance, it's blackened ambient band Crown of Asteria. This one woman project is handled by the enormously talented Meghan Wood and is currently under one of my favourite labels Le Crépuscule du Soir Productions. Wood's devastatingly atmospheric 2015 full-length Great Freshwater… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Crown Of Asteria
