Haeligewielle [Vinyl]

A swirling cataract of a record, a deluge of beautiful noise and crushing melody, which ebbs and flows beneath the surface. Utilizing bowed strings, bent electronics, found percussion and occasional vocals, the record unfolds over seven tracks and fifty minutes.

"Petrels has provided us with what has to be the strongest solo debut from a musician so far in 2011. It's as if Barrett has launched his solo career as Petrels by giving us his own Sisyphus narrative, and somehow it sounds dreadfully authentic - no small feat. Haeligewielle is an album so dense and immersive you sometimes feel as though you are drowning or being smothered, but that's exactly the way it's supposed to feel." (Brendan Moore, Fluid Radio)
