Rusty Shackle, The Raven, The Thief & The Hangman. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Stories are important, vital, central to the idea of what we are, the ability to weave a tale and have it last for generations is perhaps the reason why there is some approximate truth in the myths and legends that have given us a basis in which our lives have been built upon. Whilst dragons are not visible to our eyes, while the lost island of Atlantis evokes memories but no shred of final resting place, and the resting place of King Arthur remains a shrouded mystery, it is not to say that the folk legends that have grown up around them are any less intriguing than they were at the time of their first mentions by our ancestor’s tongues.
