About this album

shelsmusic (2007) Released: 18 Jun 2007 11 tracks (58:55)
Sea of the Dying Dhow was recorded in a month in a apartment with basic recording gear… the drums were recorded in London with their good friend Mark Williams at Criterion studios. Lots of different guitar tunings and instruments and vibes went into the recording. Sea of the Dying Dhow is a mixture of sounds and feelings.

Lyrics of this album deal with birth and death, angels, what comes after… the rise and fall of empires… Circles we see in life, cycles we see all around us… waves… nature. … love, hate… pain and pleasure… and the search for peace and balance.

    It's comforting to know that no matter what you do in life, it will never be as awesome as this album. [2]
