Firewater $8.68 Pared down to a trio following the departure of guitarist Joel R.L. Phelps, Silkworm traded the scrabbling, Anglophilic angularity that marked their first few discs for an airier, high-lonesome sound that ultimately proves far more rewarding. Much of the impact comes from the sharper focus put on the spatially challenging guitar attack of Andy Cohen, whose eloquent, barely-in-control solos on "Dra... |

Excerpt: Leizu (Chinese : ; pinyin : Léi Z ) was a legendary Chinese empress and wife of the Yellow Emperor . According to tradition, she discovered silk and invented the silk loom in the 27th century BC.Leizu discovered silkworms while having a midday tea, and a cocoon fell in her tea.On one account the silk worm fell into her tea and the heat unwrapped the silk and it stretched across her entire garden. When the silk ran out she saw a small cocoon and realized that this cocoon was the source of the silk. Another says that she found silkworms eating the mulberry leaves and spinning cocoons. She collected some cocoons, and then sat down to have some tea. While she was sipping a cup of tea, she dropped a cocoon into the steaming water. A fine thread started to separate itself from the cocoon. Leizu found that she could unwind this soft and lovely thread around her finger.She persuaded her husband to give her a grove of mulberry trees, where she could domesticate the worms that made these cocoons. She is attributed with inventing the silk reel, which joins fine filaments into a thread strong enough for weaving. |
