Last summer, the festival Toulouse d’Été commissioned Saåad to work on the St-Michel fountain, personification of the confluence of the river Ariège and Garonne. Romain Barbot & Greg Buffier took their recording material to this specific place and gave life to a 20 minutes trip divided in 4 movements. Confluences is lead by field recordings and chanting guitars, showing a new face of the french duo who found the balance point between immensity and intimacy.
Pigeonwing plays doom. Over the course of a single 22 minute track, they play every style of doom imaginable, from bluesy to droning to sludgey and misanthropic, but always colossal and heavy.
I feel like this is the album that got my last blog banned, so keep it on the DL, if you know what I'm sayin. This link still works for some reason, get it while you can.
