Phil Elverum, noto come Mount Eerie, è un artista singolare la cui opera esplora l'intersezione tra memoria personale, mito e senso del luogo. Il suo distintivo suono lo-fi, meticolosamente realizzato con apparecchiature analogiche, evoca la bellezza cruda della natura e della vita quotidiana. I testi di Elverum approfondiscono l'esperienza umana, trasformando momenti ordinari in sacri, e spesso fanno riferimento a opere precedenti, creando un universo artistico coerente e immersivo. La sua arte visiva, che include fotografia e disegni, completa la sua musica, offrendo ulteriori livelli di interpretazione.

Dawn, an intense memoir, delves deeply into an intensely creative period of Elverum's life, with a beautiful mix of journal writing, jokes, photographs, and music. This hardcover collection chronicles Elverum's winter spent alone in a cabin in arctic Norway, wrestling with ghosts, gathering wood, acting out myths--3 months of unfiltered brain torrents interspersed with drawings. It comes with a 17-track CD of songs, pared down to just guitar and vocals, written during that time, songs that have become well-known over the years through recordings and live performances. The music of Mount Eerie and The Microphones has always been a very personal, almost voyeuristic, view inside the mind of Phil Elverum. bull; Also included is a 16-page color photo booklet
