Label: The Weird Beard
Weird Beard are very happy to announce Smote’s Debut LP “Bodkin”, a solo project from Newcastle upon Tyne-based Daniel Foggin. Following on from two EP’s (also released as part of the short-run Weird Beard Tapes series) and two collaborative cassettes since Smote’s birth in April 2020, Bodkin spans transcendental psych-folk to crushing drone and conjures images of bleak medieval landscapes and cavernous dungeons. Taking heavy influence from both Scandinavian psych-rock and traditional instrumentation, Bodkin represents an escape from modern living and offers the listener a heavy journey into the ether.
