Witnesses - Joy (I See Everything)
Liminal Dread Productions
I’ve given sight to the world Their scales fell one by one Now the deaf can finally hear me And the mute speak my name No mysteries remain to me I see near and far I am the spirit I am the demon I see everything I see you I am the spirit which Only you can see I am the spirit which Only you can see I am the shaking in the trees And the stillness in the night I am beyond the horizon You've heard me in the stories Most word was true But know me by the sight And voice and sound I gave to the world Sometimes witch, sometimes animal See me in the fire Hear me when the waves break Hear me when the waves break The most sacred of your books Won't keep you Rite and ritual Have lost their magic You don that mantle now There's neither dance nor song To make you safe again Safe again Their scales fell one by one Now the deaf can finally hear me And the mute speak my name No mysteries remain to me I see near and far

The collected efforts of over 55 bands have coalesced into "Heavy for the Hollers", a 4.5+ hour genre-spanning compilation that unites artists from across the scene together in a common cause.

The devastating effects of Hurricane Helene were felt across the nation but most potently in Appalachia due to its lack of resources and infrastructure robust enough to resist a storm of such magnitude. We at Liminal Dread Productions in conjunction with the band Threnodist felt compelled to compile this set of tracks in hopes that it might encourage many to give what they can in service of beginning the healing process. Though immediate aid is critical, it is sustained giving which allows a region to recover.

All proceeds from sale of this compilation will go to Mutual Aid Disaster relief.

Other methods of giving include purchasing at Bandcamp or by directly donating to Mutual Aid Disaster Relief. Provide proof of a direct donation to [email protected] to receive a Bandcamp download code.
