Documenta - The Blue Sleep by Touch Sensitive published on 2018-09-06T09:48:53Z DOCUMENTA – LADY WITH THE RING Order: https://touchsensitiverecords.bandcamp.com/album/lady-with-the-ring Promo Video: https://youtu.be/i2lYAkzo2Yc Touch Sensitive Records | TSR14 Limited Vinyl EP / Digital Friday 12th October 2018 Following on from their sold-out LP for Touch Sensitive and a digital reissue of it’s predecessor, Documenta take a break from their Drone Pop trilogy to introduce the Lady With The Ring - Margorie McCall - “lived once, buried twice”. McCall lived in rural Ireland in the early 18th century. She succumbed to a fever and was hastily buried in Lurgan’s Shankill cemetery. Her grave was visited by “a tramp of disreputable character with a reckless and thieving disposition” who drew blood as he tried to prise the ring from her finger, awakening the dead woman who subsequently lived for many years after. The Lady With The Ring EP sees Documenta’s regular seven-piece lineup temporarily swell with narration from author and musician Will Carruthers (Playing The Bass With Three Left-Hands, Spacemen 3, Spiritualized) providing counterpoint to Roisin Stewart’s hazed vocals as she tells the story from the dead woman’s lips. Self-recorded in one weekend a stone's throw from McCall’s grave and subsequently re- worked and shaped by the group, Lady With The Ring introduces sparkling synthesized passages and an organic ‘cosmic-blues’ to Documenta’s already lush sonic expanse.
