Album NZ 2015 on Ilk Ither label
(Post Rock, Country, Drone, Minimal, Noise, Folk)
"So, we all know how record store day is all about bands from the 90s that had one good album releasing stupid box-sets with live tracks, demos and outtakes of songs no-one really wants to hear, all the while pretending it's limited edition but giving it a general release a month or two later. To celebrate this tradition Ilk Ither is proud to present The Bent Folk LIVE, a 4cd box-set culled from 3 years of live performances and home recordings. Available for one day only from Death Ray Records in Wellington, NZ." Bent Folk LIVE 4cd box-set, culled from 3 years of bootleg recordings playing in and around Wellington. Originally released for Record Store Day 2015 by Ilk Ither in an edition of 10 hand-made boxes.
