VINYL WEEK GIVEAWAY: Enter to Win Of Spire & Throne’s Toll of the Wound EP on Wax, Tape and CD!
I promise you, I didn’t time this second Vinyl Week giveaway to the Scottish independence vote. I’m not that coordinated. Edinburgh’s Of Spire and Throne released their James Plotkin-mastered Toll of the Wound EP earlier this year on New York’s Broken Limbs Recordings on LP, CD and tape (available here), and if you enter now by leaving a comment on this post, you can win the release on all three formats. You get everything shown in the pic above, including BOTH editions of the 12″ vinyl, red and black. It’s a huge prize and I’m maddeningly jealous of whoever is going to win it.
Toll of the Wound is Of Spire and Throne‘s third EP, the trio presenting three extended tracks of slow motion sludge bludgeoning over a brutal half-hour course that, for most bands, would probably qualify as a full-length. They keep a strong sense of atmosphere in their material, guitarist/vocalist Ali Lauder, bassist Matthew Davies and drummer/key specialist Graham Stewart pushing low and slow throughout “Legacy,” “Tower of Glass” and “Cascading Shard,” each ensuing rumble seeming to shake more than the last as they lumber and growl their way through, upping the pace every now and again as a payoff but still keeping to an extremity of a crawl and thud.
If you don’t believe me, take a listen:

So… do you ever announce the winners of competitions?? This and Gage never declared that I can see… not a moan, curious… saw OSaT in Inverness, Ali said winner of this prize was fae Inverness too….
You know, I’ve thought about announcing the winners, but I’d rather err on the side of respecting people’s privacy. According to both bands, the prizes were mailed.
