A bizarre musical creature called SCRYING GLASS appeared a few years ago on the radar of the weird music fans, leaving us speechless: in Scrying Glass' music, there is the whole history of the most oblique and (today) neglected pop-rock music: a bit of classic progressive sound by Yes, Gentle Giant and Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, a bit of the 70s sci-fi aesthetics so dear to Tangerine Dream, Eloy and Hawkwind and a bit of jazz-fusion easy listening to give an unfashionable elegance touch. All are presented with deliciously cheap and shamelessly '90s midi sounds!
We couldn't remain indifferent to all this: so we jumped at the chance to make a limited edition Scrying Glass anthology cassette, when the author behind the monicker, Mr. Zack Dolin, proposed to us.

The tape"Tales of the Dying Earth" contains a selection of our favorite S.G. songs packaged with artwork that is a tribute to the 1940s comic book series "Planet Comics" and one of its most beloved authors, artist Dan Zolnerowich (1915-1995).
A 32-page booklet with an unpublished retro sci-fi story by our frighteningly talented Sergio Poli completes the proposal; a proposal that, we are sure, will meet the refined tastes of all you, lovers of unusual music!
