Sand Snowman - Two Way Mirror

Many will see the new Sand Snowman album Two Way Mirror as a 21^st century continuation of a tradition which began with artists like the Incredible String Band and Nick Drake and which continued through into Syd Barrett's finest moments. They may have a point. For years, Sand Snowman has spent a quiet life in the heart of London, countering the harsh noises and hectic bustle of this strung-out metropolis with miraculous albums of mysteriously quiet music. His first three full-lengths, released in strictly limited editions and vanishingly small print runs, established a musical cosmos filled with bright wonder: In the best of psychedelic traditions, Sand's songs did not fearfully seek for an escape from reality, but subtly twisted its parameters to create delicate shifts in perception.
