about
Hallowing – ‘To make holy’
The cover features a depiction of a burning barrel, as detailed in lino print. The iconography of the burning barrel is inspired by the Lewes Martyrs, 17 Protestants burned at the stake in Lewes, East Sussex as punishment for heresy under the reign of Mary I.
“It is the morning of 22nd June 1557. Outside the Star Inn in Lewes, men are busy with the grim preparations for a great auto-da-fé. The spirit of persecution has broken out again with increased bitterness and intensity, in the cellars under the inn wait ten prisoners, six men and four women… Of these ten, only [two] were brought to trial, the others had been apprehended within the two or three days prior to their martyrdoms. Without any authority or writ of condemnation from the proper authorities they were hurried to Lewes and together in one fire, were burnt at the stake.”
“Auto De Fe = The ritual of public penance of condemned heretics. The auto de fé involved a Catholic Mass, prayer, a public procession of those found guilty and a reading of their sentences. The ritual took place in public squares or esplanades and lasted several hours with ecclesiastical and civil authorities in attendance”
Many times I have stood in the streets of Lewes on November 5th whilst hundreds march by, pulling barrels of burning tar, bearing pitch torches, and groups of 17 burning crosses for the seventeen martyrs condemned and executed as heretics, serving as both fitting context for this track and a poignant reminder of the below:
- The danger that religious hysteria and widespread reactionary beliefs hold when unchecked in a societal environment
- The consequences of the idolisation and absolutism of a figurehead
- The sense of dispossessed autonomy that comes from gatherings with a single intent and purpose, an unconscious personal liberation of societal inhibitions that robs an individual of their morals and principles towards others and the inherent danger this posseses for those marginalised against said groups.
