Black Wooden Ceiling Opening

[Wizard]

So i was wondering if anybody here has ever heard the album "Black Wooden Ceiling Opening" by Mount Eerie.

I have always been a huge fan of Anacortes Washington's very own lo-fi folk pioneer, Phil Elverum for years now, and i have always loved his music as well as the way it sounds.

This record is definitely lo-fi, but if you're into that wall of fuzz kinda dirty "fuck yes" tone, than i suggest checking it out.

Think lo-fi folk meets Neil Young's "Rust" era meets gritty garage rock meets garage speed metal meets the meatiest craziest fucking wall-o-fuzz ever.

I think it rules. I found this link on some kids blog to a download of the record... if you wanna check it out. I highly suggest it if you're into anything i mentioned above, or you like really obscure messy jams.

I love this album! Don't Smoke is a incredible song! I've had it for awhile and it sounds very different from other Microphones/Mount Eerie stuff. Have you heard Lost Wisdom with Julie Dorion and Fred Squire? It's really good, it's also a little different from his other stuff.

i tried DLing it but im on a mac and it reads it as a document
any other way i can get it?

I also use a mac, but .RAR is just another type of compressed file, such as a .ZIP. it's for windows.


Download RAR expander from here:

Hope you like it!

Yes, Like the glow pt. 2 & Samurai sword. Except more of it.

ps - Wizard, can we hear your "odd tunings, Joan OF Arc" band??

I only have demos of me singing and playing guitar.. all of the other things aren't there yet, cuz i moved to london before recording anything. But within the next two months or so you'll get it.

in the meantime, if you haven't heard:
http://www.myspace.com/algernoncadwallader <-- Desciples of JOA & Capn. I'm really good friends with those guys, and Joe the guitarist likes to help me out alot. Great dudes.

i also play(ed) in this outfit, but it was short lived before the band had a falling out and half of us went on to form my new band, Airports. But we're actually working on stuff again! This makes me excited because i use a different tuning in every song we have http://www.myspace.com/lastdinosarz

hopefully those keep you occupied and thank you for taking interest. such good people on this here board.

You know them? Weird. When I first heard them all I could think of was JOA/Cap'n Jazz/Owls.

Haha, yeah man. One of my professors is one of the dudes who owns Jade Tree Records and we always discuss how super bizarre it is that Peter sounds exactly like Tim Kinsella. Pretty great band though. as he put it to me "The Cap'n Jazz of your generation."

One of my best friends lives with them, and they have a recording studio together. The Headroom. If you're in philly and you need quality recording for cheap, theres no other place i would go. Best dudes, Best space AND i'm working there over the summer I'm a lucky guy sometimes.

I hope you dug BWCO too!

Fuck you man, you're too lucky. I'm totally jealous of you...

Great great album. Phil Elvrum performed at my school this year and I was lucky enough to meet him. He's a really nice, humble man and clearly loves performing. His voice live is spot on...it never looks like he's trying that hard but he'll hit notes where you'll just be like, what?!

I saw him in the chapel of the first unitarian church in philly which seats like 50 people....

it was so amazing. His wife (who goes by Woelv) opened for him... When he played "the voice in the headphones" she sang from the back of the room with him, and he asked the entire crowd to sing along with him. It was one of the most magical moments... of my life...

glad you dig.

Domesticated dog is actually my favourite Jam.

It's a grower, i promise. That's how it got that way.
