The creators and sole inhabitants of the Splatterfolk genre are back.... for the last time. The Norwegian duo of Martha Redivivus (musical saw, flute, melodica, uke, gtr, kalimba, vox) and Seth H. Buncombe (banjo, voice, pretzel) have put everything into their third and final album. It's a double LP featuring such guests as Jim Santo, Brad Dourif doing spoken word (One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Deadwood) Clodagh Simonds (Mellow Candle, Fovea Hex) and Norsk Noiser Laase Marhaug. It was recorded in New York, Dublin and Oslo over 3 years but sounds like a unified work and unmistakeably Thinguma*jigsaw.
The album is already streaming and on sale our Bandcamp page. It's a limited edition of 300 copies in gatefold sleeves with stunning B&W artwork by Martha Redivivus so get back to us soon if you'd like to stock it. It's a Deserted Village/derodidymus split release.
From the Liner notes:
This album is a heartfelt celebration of the musical idiom "splatter-folk" and of the often dark beauty of suspense, sexuality, horror and death.....These "folk songs of horror and dread" are best understood as contemporary versions of classic ghost stories or scary tales told around the campfire, and as homages to the films of John Carpenter, Dario Argento, Lucio Fulci and George Romero, and to the writing of Edgar Allan Poe, Roald Dahl, Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Stephen King.
