His newest album is great. He uses a 12-string guitar. He's kind of like a Fahey in a sense, but still unique.


A post on waffles under one of his albums had this...

"Initially inspired by the guitarists of the 60’s Takoma label to teach himself fingerpicking, James Blackshaw writes long-form pieces primarily for solo 12-string guitar that are heavily influenced by minimalist composers and European classical music and which use drones, overtones and repeating patterns alongside a strong inclination for melody to create instrumental music that is both intelligent, hypnotic and emotionally charged."

great cover

I like Fahey a lot, so I might check this out. You have a link or did you buy it?

Bought, because i love the cover art lol.

Thanks for the link dude, you should send me more stuff if you ever feel like it. I'm pretty much open to anything besides metal.

that link should find most things lol.

Nice album. He has a new one coming out in May, with piano and female vocals apparently. It's called "The Glass Bead Game".
He also plays on the new (and great) Current 93 album.
