August 18th Release's Leit Motifs Include "Erosion and "Mortality"

The lo-fi experiments of Phil Elverum aren't just good, they're downright spooky good! Whether you follow his work with The Microphones or most recently, Mount Eerie, the Anacortes, Washington native is the epitome of the avant-garde lone wolf. You can't find too many chinks in this guy's armor. He answers to no one but surrounds himself with likeminded musicians/loners. His third album as Mount Eerie will be most likely linked with 2008's black metal-like Black Wooden Ceiling Opening EP. On August 18th, Elverum will expand upon Black Wooden's moody soundscapes with a full-length affair. P.W. Elverum & Sun is releasing Mount Eerie's third album, Wind's Poem and get this, it's being described as his "black metal album." Totally rad, right?
