Our summer guests, the house martins, seem very excited this evening. Are they planning on heading south soon? Always feels like the end of summer when they leave our home in Avebury.

This brown hare was as surprised as I was when I stumbled across it while trying to photograph swallows. We stared at each other just long enough for me to change settings and record the encounter.
Immediately after, its ears pricked up and it shot into the undergrowth.

Cryogeyser’s sound is all emotion and atmosphere – shoegaze haze, grunge weight, and trip-hop shimmer. Their self-titled third album floats from heavy drones to whispered vulnerability. Back after four years, they’re heavier, dreamier, and more expansive than ever.
