Since
1998 Northern Valentine has been perfecting
their version of drone music - based on improvisation & the
emotions of the performers reacting to their physical environment
& to each other at that moment, feeding off of &
amplifying each other’s energies. Here they collect more of
the unique drones that have made them a staple of the genre.

pages

Like
a lot of people we have
a great deal of fascination & respect for the great pulp writer
Robert
E Howard. This comic is about his real life done in an
autobio sad-bastard
style. Looking at his daily life makes his life's work all
the more
fascinating & of course there are parallels to Mitchell's life
as well.
A mini-comic about the dark
side of relationships.
Story
& words by Brian
John Mitchell.

Remora is the main alias
of Silber Records honcho Brian John Mitchell. In 15 years, the man has
cover a lot of ground, and Scars Bring Hope, while featuring only new
material,
kind of sums up past experiences. Inside you will find post-apocalyptic
folk songs, drones, and electronic music. Helped by Electric Bird
Noise’s
Brian Lee McKenzie, who dragged him out of the bedroom and into a
proper
recording studio, Remora delivers an album more definitive-sounding
than
usual, a good point of entry into his universe – a dark, fallen
universe
with very little hope left.
~ François Couture
, Monsieur Delire
Remora returns with both
it's special brand of post apocalyptic pop & guitar drone in a
full
band setting. The most commercial Remora release to
date. In
the vein of Some Past's Future & Enamored.
From
post punk to post rock & always post apocalyptic.

This band is beauty personified. Their music is ethereal and swirly,
much like Cocteau Twins and Bel Canto. Eliza Brown’s voice captivates
and entrances. The guitars are swirly and chimey while the rhythm
section chugs along quite contently. . . . This band has been around
for a few years and has seen many lineup changes. I do feel this
combination of musicians is indeed the strongest they’ve had &
I hope
they continue to make music as impressive as this in their current
configuration.
~ The Noise-Boston
The
first recording of Plumerai with all new line-up featuring new
vocalist Eliza Brown & new drummer Mickey Vershbow.
