His music with innovative heavy droning folk band Wovenhand, and before that the haunting revivification of high lonesome sound antique Americana of 16 Horsepower breathed a near apocalyptic sense of urgency and power into musical archetypes long abandoned in the latter-20th Century. On his first-ever solo album under his own name, Hyacinth, David Eugene Edwards delivers a sound uniquely his own, with a vulnerability and introspection unheard from him before. Stripping back the heavy rock of his recent work with Wovenhand, Hyacinth puts the man’s voice, and sparing instrumentation into the main focus. There’s a somber beauty and world-weary tone throughout these songs. The album could’ve been considered a slight return to the more melodic sounds of 16 Horsepower’s Secret South (2000) and the first, self-titled Wovenhand album (2002). But there’s more going on here: a rhythmic, pulsating undercurrent reminiscent of the tape loops and rudimentary rhythms of 80s Industrial post-punk as well as 808 Drill Style beats. The overall effect is often as if we’re hearing the clock ticking away our own mortality. “Hyacinth was a sort of vision,“ Edwards says. “A dream. I sought out of my old wooden banjo and nylon string guitar a hidden path. Secrets they had kept from me within themselves all these years and created a new Mythos to myself of philosophical and spiritual ideas or concepts.” Once he’d harnessed the music within, he enlisted multi-instrumentalist and producer Ben Chisholm (The Armed, Chelsea Wolfe, Converge) to help him realize the album’s recording and mix. “Overall, the album is a weaving of narratives ancient and modern, of humankind’s search for understanding of this world we find ourselves in and of each other. In all its simplicity and complexity,” Edwards continues. “Hyacinth is a reference to the Greek myth of Apollo. And, the word meaning a precious stone and blue larkspur flower of purple and pall.” Artist David Eugene Edwards Genre Rock And Pop Label Sargent House Buying Options 1LP , 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Seraph Howling Flower Celeste Through The Lattice Apparition Bright Boy Hyacinth Lionisis Weavers Beam Hall of Mirrors The Cuckoo Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Camberwell Now The Ghost Trade Rock And Pop | Modern Classics / Light In The Attic | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 23rd September 2016 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Camberwell Now The Ghost Trade £25.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Modern Classics / Light In The Attic SKU: MCR921 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 23rd September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Forgetters S/T Rock And Pop | Too Small To Fail | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 12th November 2012 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Forgetters S/T £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Too Small To Fail SKU: TSTF02 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 12th November 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Theaudience Theaudience Rock And Pop | Last Night From Glasgow | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 29th April 2022 £25.00 - £26.00 Select options Theaudience Theaudience £25.00 - £26.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Last Night From Glasgow Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 29th April 2022 Read More Select options View Product Quick View John Cale Music For A New Society Rock And Pop | Domino | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 19th January 2016 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Cale Music For A New Society £16.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Domino SKU: REWIGLP93 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 19th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Blacklisters BLKLSTRS Rock And Pop | Brew Records | 1LP Released 17th October 2012 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Blacklisters BLKLSTRS £15.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Brew Records SKU: BRW020 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 17th October 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mountains Air Museum Rock And Pop | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 9th May 2011 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mountains Air Museum £14.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Thrill Jockey SKU: THRILL274LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 9th May 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View David Bowie Blackstar Rock And Pop | Columbia | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 4th January 2016 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders David Bowie Blackstar £34.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Columbia SKU: 88875173871 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 4th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Local Natives Violet Street Rock And Pop | Loma Vista | 1LP Released 26th April 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Local Natives Violet Street £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Loma Vista SKU: LVR00615 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kate Tempest The Book of Traps & Lessons Rock And Pop | Fiction | 1LP Released 14th June 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kate Tempest The Book of Traps & Lessons £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Fiction SKU: B3009601 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 14th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Arcs, The Yours, Dreamily Rock And Pop | Nonesuch | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 1st September 2015 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Arcs, The Yours, Dreamily £23.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Nonesuch SKU: 0075597950014 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 1st September 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
