Jane Weaver - The Fallen By Watch Bird (Expanded Edition) [audioCD]

This 15th-anniversary reissue of Jane Weaver's formative masterpiece, The Fallen By Watch Bird, arrives as a special expanded edition featuring The Watchbird Alluminate. Originally released on Weaver’s own Bird Records, this conceptual record is a tapestry of psychedelic femme-folk-rock, drawing influences from Eastern European children's cinema, Germanic kunstmärchen, 70s television music, and 80s electronic scores. Steeped in synths and mysticism, the album weaves imagery of absent sailors, telekinesis, bird messengers, and white witchcraft alongside pagan themes of death and rebirth.
