lyrics

The inhabitants of a village at the bottom of the valley are desperate: sometimes the river starts to flow backwards, until it dries up. This creates many problems for the village economy, damaging fishing, crops, transports ... After a few days of desperation, prayers and propitiatory rites, the river starts to flow in the right direction. It is simply a spite by a 36th level wizard who lives on the top of the mountain, near the source, angry because the beautiful daughter of the mayor did not want to marry him.

flies the coop
by Hole Dweller

supported by 89 fans who also own “The river that flows uphill”

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

Dinosaurs and Dungeon Synth? PERFECT. This is the album that really got me into dungeon synth again and made me continue my dinosaur obsession. winstonrandom

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127
