I press my broken ear
full of the scum of sound
to the chest of the common ancestor
to the heart of the heartless-land
hearing everything
in the oldest night
he crackles in the static
he fades into the light
in the wake of thunder
in the shadow of a dream
I am crawling towards him
slowly upstream
and we’re lit by lightning
on a luminous beach
as he darkly whispers
‘I’m within your reach’
white song sung sore in a thrown voice
swells up in the shell of a man
whose heart by rote learns every note
whose fossilized ammonite ears divine their right
his body mollusk-like
in a violent sleep
encrusted in her echoes
awaits his slow release
in the wake of thunder
in the shadow of a dream,
she is crawling towards him
slowly upstream
and they’re lit by lightning
on a luminous beach
as she darkly whispers
‘i’m within your reach’

Find a quiet spot, sit down, put on the headphones, and don't do anything else but listen to this album. Symptoms will include shivers, a rush of intense emotions, and the desire to see Kathryn Joseph live. No, YOU'RE weeping into your coffee, transfixed by this beautiful, heartrending music. Saint Aardvark
A blissful sunny day that swaddles you in a gazey dream, while still being heartfelt and sincere. Every track is gorgeous in its own identifiable way and they all come together to create a lovely soundscape. Luke Warmwater
The duo of Sascha Höfer and Bertram Kolar command an "island of sound" on their debut EP, contrasting warm hooks with turbulent dynamics. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2022
