My Father Took Me Hunting in the Snow

by Sunrise Patriot Motion

supported by

pinkytheent A lightning-quick affair, but testament to Sunrise Patriot Motion’s mastery, still packed to the gills with mood and vibe. The unsettling, simmering madness of the debut album remains in this EP, brimming with goth strangeness. This EP passes over you like the fever dream which it is, passing over the unnamed oil field protagonist. I think he killed his father… Favorite track: Two Crows Woke in the Nest.

lachl That last track has DNA straight from rare field ceiling and I absolutely love it Favorite track: Two Crows Woke in the Nest.

cold purveryor of narcotic death My father also took me hunting in the snow!

Fiery The Angels Fell Black Fellwater Stream was easily my AOTY of 2022. I still listen to it weekly as nothing else sounds like it.

To find an EP that's both a musical and narrative extension of an album is rare. To have that album be one of your all time favourites is an absolute treat. I don't know what I've done to deserve it but I'm not complaining!

Like it's predecessor, and despite its brevity, there's so much here to sink your teeth into. Bring on another full album!

JDMP Good grief! This scratches that itch of wanting more. And, like any good little scratch, it keeps you on the edge of what is still to come. It would be an understatement to say that I am not a little eager for what they have in store for us next.

A horseman in the shade A spider on his lap I see him dappled in the deep I see the moonlight on his map I see him waiting for a sign He with the rifle is the last to know He who is silent is first forgot My father took me hunting in the snow The rat has a needle In the butter of his mind Bog taste in the salmon Hill bells rippling in the shine One way to slip inside the palace Is going hunting with the king One way to slip inside his body Is through a window in his skin Turkey’s claw Do not speak Spiral saw Hunching sneak Sudden punch Meadow play Little runt Final day A horseman in the shade A spider on his lap I see him dappled in the deep I see the moonlight on his map I see him waiting for a sign He with the rifle is the last to know He who is silent is first forgot My father took me hunting in the snow

The day took little sips Blue hands upon the glass Wake in the twilight’s glare Hogs in the shadows pass In the bag In the steam In the slit In the dream In the rind In the deep In the pinch In the creep When the sun goes down I am the sun My day is done When the sun comes up I am another one Two crows woke in the nest When the well pump quit My lips got dry I caught a fish When my throat got sick I swam down deep And I drank piss down in the ditch In the bag In the steam In the slit In the dream In the rind In the deep In the pinch In the creep Memento blitz reveal Damascus mist recoil The silence of the birds The singing of the soil I am another one When the sun goes down I am the sun My day is done When the sun comes up I am another one Two crows woke in the nest When the well pump quit My lips got dry I caught a fish When my throat got sick I swam down deep And I drank piss down in the ditch I am another one

about

Sunrise Patriot Motion presents a new EP, My Father Took Me Hunting in the Snow. On 2022’s Black Fellflower Stream, we witnessed a man in an isolated meadow frenetically dig a hole to nowhere, believing his salvation would manifest as a river of underground oil. We find him in the same meadow, on the same day. On the exultant title track, his paranoid daze brings about bleak recollections of a childhood winter hunting trip with his father, who he envisions as the king. A broken well pump in Two Crows Woke in the Nest causes a fit of thirst and the euphoric realization that he is the sun, and, as the day ends, so will he.

How is it June of 2025 and I just found my AOTY for 2024. This album is everything I love about atmospheric music in one place. I can't stop playing this. Sad physical media is so hard to find. Can't stop listening. Will be checking out the back catalog. This is sooo good. bbourgon
