Aurora Borealis is proud to present long-time faves HEAVY WINGED on limited vinyl with the 'Shaking, waking' LP. The band have been consistently impressing us since we first heard them back in 2006 and we are very happy to have snagged them for this release before tagging them and releasing them back into the wild.

The 'Shaking, waking' LP consists of two lengthy tracks: 'Tidal Blackness' is a 23 minute cloud of improvised guitar and bass drone, underpinned with sparse percussive elements and dappled with the rays of ethereal melodies. This track, recorded live in Oakland in 2008, represents the more gentle side of HEAVY WINGED in some ways and is largely soothing. The second side harbours 'Morning Flesh', 18 minutes that veer towards the caveman Krautrock of the recent 'Alive in my mouth' LP, drums pounding, Neanderthal guitar chugging, though with a melodic haze drifting across the musical landscape like a lysergic mistral, leading the listener ever further into the shifting sands of the forbidden zone.

HEAVY WINGED have set the controls for the heart of the unknown.
