To anyone who follows closely Blood Axis, Knotwork certainly won't be an unknown name.. Knotwork put together the polemic Michael Moynihan and Annabel Lee with guitarrist Dono Schabner with the sole purpose of creating folk music from the Old World. Nothing that Blood Axis hadn't done with tracks like The March of Brian Boru or Follow Me Up to Carlow, but with Knotwork it is made with a greater sense of melody, closer to the festive atmosphere that this kind of music so often has. With the only flaw its short duration, this little EP raises hope for what might come in the future, and surely many good people will be dancing in the middle of their rooms. |
