Silver Tongued Sisyphus is a secular call to prayer with humming, looping and loping ambient passages interspersed with bursting rhythmic energy and agitated guitar lines. Recent Cloudland Canyon live shows have sounded like an unauthorized soundtrack to netherworld versions of The Swimmer or The Scorceror.
Pulling influences from the foggy ether of generations past, Cloudland Canyon has staked their claim to the shadows of cult musical culture of the late 1960’s and early 1970’s German underground scene.
“In Greek mythology, “Sisyphus” was a king punished in the underworld by being cursed to roll a huge boulder up a hill throughout eternity”. – Wikipedia
