Lion Devours The Sun is the first full length release from
U.K. resident Mathew Sweet following his self-titled kranky
debut EP released in the fall of 2005. It was recorded at
home with a 4 track and a single microphone, using acoustic
guitar and voice along with well placed touches of a cymbal-
playing monkey, some bricks, an e-bowed autoharp, a homemade
gramophone, and daggers. The title derives from alchemical
imagery, the sun representing consciousness and the lion
symbolizing emotion. Some of these songs contain actual
invocations of demonic forces. Not really. Mathew states
that "this is not folk music", and that someone told him that
they think the first record "sounds humble and withdrawn and
the new one sounds righteous and bitter". He agrees. The
debut Boduf Songs release garnered high praise from all
reviewers. He has performed limited live shows in the U.K.
and Europe, and recently recorded a live session for the
legendary VPRO in Amsterdam.
