Boduf Songs - How Shadows Chase the Balance

This 2008 album is a further step away from the "folk" label, which never seemed all that appropriate to Mathew's work in any case. If you record solo w/ an acoustic guitar the description is somewhat inevitable. But the results might more rightly be construed as "acoustic death metal" considering the themes of death, alienation, fear, hatred & isolation that are his forte, as well as his affinity for gothic imagery.
