release notes:
Canadian spring, evoked in sombre tones
Finnr's Cane's 2010 debut was an excellent winter album with which the
band created an individual mixture between pacing Black Metal and sublime
Post Rock to carve its own niche. With the music on "A Portrait Painted
By The Sun", The Bard, The Peasant and The Slave follow up seamlessly
while the band's concept is developed further. Inspired by the change of
seasons in their Canadian home Ontario and the beautiful quiet of remote
places, the group has condensed their, for once, improvisational approach
to remarkably compact songs, which once more enchant the listener with
their almost tangible atmosphere. Whereas "Wanderlust" reprensented the
austerity of winter, the name "A Portrait Painted By The Sun" practically
speaks for itself. Finnr's Cane paint a subtly vernal image characterised
by a softly warm aura, which is telling with respect to the musicans'
progress.
