Hallow

by Herd of Instinct

supported by

Shawn Sutherland Fans of King Crimson (e.g., Double Trio/Double Duo) and Mahavishnu Orchestra should investigate Herd of Instinct.

But know that Hallow is atypical of HOI’s sound; it contains (fantastic!) ambient interpretations of songs from their existing prog repertoire.

So, listen to Hallow. Then, so as to truly appreciate its contents, explore HOI’s other albums (their eponymous debut album [featuring Gavin Harrison and Pat Mastelotto], Conjure, Manifestation and Drone Priest) and then come back to it!
Favorite track: Torture Garden (Hallow Mix).

about

Hallow is a radical remix/reimaging/reconstruction of Herd of Instinct’s music. The progressive rock originals have been transformed into slow moving soundscapes.

Inspiration came from a wide range of sources - Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings” to the drone metal of Sunn O))) to David Lynch's Eraserhead to Bill Laswell’s ambient mix translations of Bob Marley and Miles Davis.
