As quoted by Merrick Atkinson in the liner notes: his letter to William July 27,1991
Just a quick note to update you. Life with Toren is...enlightening. He is tightlipped, but I have learned that even now the other members of his group are being "restored" by the Old Ones. I cannot say that I like where this is headed, but I am in no position to argue.

A song was commissioned for a tribute to Italian gore film director, Lucio Fulci. This double CD was called For Lucio Fulci: Symphony of Fear and was put out by Graveside Entertainment (https://www.tradebit.com) and the song was "House of Clocks".
The dread Necronomicon - The Book of Dead Names - whispered of throughout history and made popular by pulp horror author H.P. Lovecraft; filled with sonic "keys" that open gateways in between the spaces we know, where the mysterious Great Old Ones, with unpronounceable names like "Cthulhu", wait to walk the earth again; few know the book''s secrets and fewer still can produce a copy. It is rumored, however, that a certain rock band out of the Fraser Valley in British Columbia have access to this, and other forbidden tomes - or at the very least, access to the internet.
This band "The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets" has been known to pepper their lyrics with Lovecraftian references, and indeed it is said that the very tones and melodies of the music itself are laced with uncanny alien vibrations, sewing confusion, madness, and above all a tendency to dance. Take, for example, their album "Cthulhu Strikes Back", finally re-released after being suppressed and buried for years. First released in 1995, sold out of two pressings, critically acclaimed and yet as rare as any tome of secret knowledge, "Cthulhu Strikes Back" strikes back in 2003 courtesy of Divine Industries.

We have gone on two three-week long tours in the past 3 years, but only in Canada. It is difficult and expensive to get across borders.

That is no easy task, but if you book clubs or know someone who books clubs in your town, have them contact our booking agent James MacLean at james@https://www.tradebit.com (416-598-3330 ext 305). Otherwise, if you just want to be put on our emailing list for shows and news, email thickets@https://www.tradebit.com and make that request.
