FITH - Forest by Outer Reaches published on 2019-01-02T16:47:39Z Initially a duo formed in Berlin, FITH have since multiplied and expanded to become a revolving collective of musicians and poets spread out across a Paris/Manchester/Berlin axis. The project, currently comprised of members Dice Miller, Enir Da, Rachel Margetts, ChrIs Lmx, & Arnaud Mathé gesture towards notions of the literary salon, expanded cinema happenings, and the ancient traditions of Greek oratory and religious sermons. Driven by the spell of the spoken word, minimal percussive refrains, oneiric textures & deep melodic synths, FITH channel cinematic imagery, enigmatic narratives & spiritual frenzy. Their self-titled debut 12” album was released via their collectively run imprint Wanda Portal in November 2016, a ‘quietly alluring debut of post punk tempered avant-pop songs’(Boomkat) that laid out the project’s foreboding mystique and intoxicating dream sequences with a lurking, devastating sense of purpose and (mis)direction. Other outings have included myriad solo collections of poetry, a two-track release of lurid dissonance and elegiac elevation (Signs / Cornerstone, December 2016) and an extraordinary reinterpretation of the soundtrack for cult film & iconic document of modern alienation Wanda (1971, dir. By Barbara Loden) With Swamp, their sequel to this activity and their first appearance on Outer Reaches, FITH become a refined force, on a record where all their compelling pluralities and attributes are honed and augmented; everything dilated to delirium. Forest is the first track to be taken from Swamp. A Kafkaesque, Argento inspired work of yiddish ghost theatre & psychic swirl due for release on June 7th via Outer Reaches. It was mostly written & recorded by the band in a caretaker's wing of an ancient castle in Normandy.
