You likely know Steve Von Till as one of the dual singer-guitarists in the cataclysmic post-metal force of nature that is Neurosis, but his music isn't all blood and thunder. Under his own name as well as the pseudonym Harvestman, he's been writing and recording mellower, more introspective folk-inflected songs over the last 20 years. His latest solo undertakings are twofold: a new album, No Wilderness Deep Enough, and his first book, Harvestman: 23 Untitled Poems and Collected Lyrics. The latter includes the captivating, ethereal song "Shadows on the Run," which Von Till offered up today along with its equally atmospheric music video. Watch and listen above.
"Shadows on the Run" follows up No Wilderness Deep Enough's lead single "Dreams of Trees," which premiered in May. For its part, Harvestman: 23 Untitled Poems and Collected Lyrics collects writing from across his two-decade solo career, and will be printed in a limited hardback edition illustrated with linocuts by Mazatl. The album and the book are both due on August 7th courtesy of Neurosis' own label, Neurot Recordings, and can be pre-ordered here and here, respectively.
