The Flood was written and, to a large degree, recorded,
while holed up in isolation from the world. Strange, then,
that it resonates so strongly with specific incidents
occurred and occurring within said world, well beyond the
band's sphere of self-imposed social hibernation.
It is notable that The Flood was conceived in tandem with
(but ignorant of) one great national disaster, and will be
unveiled to the world shortly following another. The
record is only coincidentally topical, yet touches on
strange synchronicities. In other words, it could be
argued that The Flood is recorded evidence of artistic
clairvoyance.
On The Flood, Wooden Wand and the Vanishing Voice imagine
an updated Sodom and Gommorah, while the world itself
changes rapidly from sunlit to unlit. Landlords and
evildoers are left to fend against a vengeful God, the
pure of heart vanish suddenly, and lesser seekers struggle
against tides of fire to find their place within this new
and mysterious wasteland. Elsewhere, the well-meaning sun
is witness to the suffering of man and seeks to embrace
and heal the earth. But it lowers it's mighty arms to
cradle the wounded globe, only to set more of it ablaze.
It is important to note that the band does not cast itself
as characters within this scene, but remain omniscient
narrators - their only role is as painters, poets, and
criers of this half-imagined apocalypse.
The CD version of this album is enhanced by the
archivo-futurist video 'Earth Dance', illustrating
particular movements of wonder and dread, echoing the
sonic themes of The Flood.
It is rumored that the band was so freaked out by what has
transpired during the many stages of creation of The Flood
that they have since drastically and permanently altered
their writing process. Buy two copies of the album and
bury one in your time capsule while time is still on your
side. This is folk music.
