Description:
In early 2008, BARDO POND and Three Lobed Recordings teamed up to assemble Batholith, a collection of tracks that were close to the band's heart but for various reasons had never been released. The result was an extremely cohesive and vital statement that was positively received by both old and new Bardo Pond fans. During the compilation of Batholith the band had to agonize over the wealth of material that they were sitting on in constructing the ultimate tracklisting--there were too many good songs! The band approached this "problem" by structuring two sister albums, Batholith and Peri, each possessing their own music
