What the label says:

Aurora Borealis is proud to present the newest release from Dead Raven
Choir, otherwise known as Wolfmangler, Garlic Yarg or D. Smolken.
*Where Wolfmangler is slow and ponderous ("compost with a grudge" as Julian
Cope stated in The Guardian last year) and could perhaps even be described
as an obscure branch of Doom, how shall we classify Dead Raven Choir?.
*An altogether noisier undertaking and unafraid of the heady heights of mid
tempo, Dead Raven Choir has baffled, irked and aroused listeners for a
number of years now. An unholy cross of Black Metal and Folk? Organically
produced noise and scree? Doubtless many a consumer has been outraged by a
lazily tagged Dead Raven Choir release, though with the countless CDr and
micro label releases there grows a veritable army of supporters, eager to
have their preconceptions smashed and ears damaged once more with every
hint of new material.
*Raw, violent and organized, Surely My Firstborn Will Be Blind grips the
listener immediately and threatens to overwhelm them with its brute force.
Clearly there is something to be said for the Eastern Bloc technologies
that were so deftly abused, as this is truly a unique sound.  Smolken has
transcended the avant-garde and moved beyond:
*Deluxe digi pack CD format with booklet. Fancy "art-edition" vinyl version.
*Tracklisting: 01. Kigi Wa Haru. 02. Our Mother The Mountain. 03. A Rosebud
In June. 04. Genesis Hall. 05. Bluenose. 06. Sheep-Crook, Black Dog. 07.
It's All Right With Me. 08. The Trees They Grow So High. 09. Favourite.
10. From The Stars.
