MOUNTAINHOOD - The River/The Road - 7"

imprec278 -7" - $10

300 exquisitely handmade copies.
Part 2 in the Larger Multivisorial Dreamsaga Called: The Light, The Road, recorded in NYC, continues the Epic Narrative of Kria Blisses' Journey to/through the Chrystal Palace first introduced in Goldenness, Part 1. Packaging painted, pencilled, photographed in New Almaden, Northern California or Point Lobos, Big Sur, also forms a narrative whole broken down into several acts or series perceivable only by Over-Eye. 


This record follows his sold out records on Time Lag, Ecstatic Yod & Reverb Worship.

This is volume ten in our Arts & Crafts series. Each record in the series is released in handmade packaging by the artist on the record.

It's clear that Michael Hilde poured countless hours into these jackets so we've documented each one. There wasn't enough time to photograph the inside covers which are as detailed as the outside. Hilde went beyond all expectations.

On break from Rough Trade and her band The Moldy Peaches, our friend Kimya finds herself at home on Important Records releasing two albums at once. Both albums are full of unique, original and beautifuly moving folk songs about Matlock, Atari 2600's, love, growing up, growing old and the Golden Girls. Kimya is one of the most unique voices in modern music and we're honored to be releasing these albums.
Both albums were recorded after her Rough Trade solo debut and both prove to be even stronger.

Mojo Magazine Underground Album Of The Month July 05'

“This record is by my favorite singer-songwriter in all of New York City. I'm so happy to be alive at the same time she is because i get to see her perform. It's her and guitar or her and piano or her and harmonium. Her lyrics are so good, when i play this for people they stop doing everything and are quiet for hours after." Devendra Banhart
