Cubs
“The Whispering Woods”
(Rusted Rail/Deadslackstring)
CD album: RR25TN17
Release Date: 4st Feburary 2011

Rusted Rail and Deadslackstring are proud to announce the release of “The Whispering Woods” by Cubs - a recording project featuring members of Phantom Dog Beneath The Moon, United Bible Studies, C Joynes, Plinth, Agitated Radio Pilot, Yawning Chasm and other travellers on the folky-margins. Featuring eleven musicians and thirteen songs, the album was recorded in Ireland, England and Africa. Born out of improvisation, Cubs have delivered an album album of 21st century psych-folk stylings comprised of late night lysergic lullabies, occasionally electrocuted acoustica and cosmic composition, while also finding time to take in spectral strings, backwoods progressions and tripped-out trad. The album is housed in a beautiful hand-assembled sleeve.


Available via mail-order from www.rustedrail.com - and from select independent retailers

Initial copies ordered from Rusted Rail will include a bonus 3” disc of additional material called “The Cubs’ Tapes”.

this is out on friday.

first review just in -

"Cubs is a communal project with bands and individuals from the Rusted Rail label rooted in Ireland, but recorded also in North Ireland, England and Gambia. This sounds like a quiet mood-provoking jam of improvisations when combining different picking instruments like tenor guitar, bouzouki and such with a bit of electric guitar textures, accordion, and improvisations on mandolincello or cello besides some other additional layers of instruments like glockenspiel, with only a spare amount of recordings of spoken word contributions and only a little bit of singing. The album hangs thus moodily together and convinces perfectly like a musical concept." -Psychefolk.com
