  Thuja - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thuja (pronounced Thuya) is a genus of coniferous trees in the Cupressaceae (cypress family).
The foliage of thujas is rich in Vitamin C, and are used by Native Americans and early European explorers as a cure for scurvy.
The closest relatives of Thuja are Thujopsis dolabrata, distinct in its thicker foliage and stouter cones, and Tetraclinis articulata, distinct in its quadrangular foliage (not flattened) and cones with four thick, woody scales.

—The thuja, a well-known coniferous tree, attains a height of from 20 to 50 feet in its native habitat, which is in cold and wet swamps, growing among the tamarac and other allied species, or in wet, rocky situations.
King described thuja in the earlier editions of the American Dispensatory, and stated that a decoction of the leaves had been used in remittent and intermittent fevers, coughs, rheumatic and scorbutic affections, and gave the usual notice respecting its power to remove warts.
The thuja treatment is so safe and simple that a surgical operation is uncalled for, the operating surgeon losing by the discovery." Later, in the Eclectic Annual, he stated that, externally applied, it would lessen the size of a naevus or mother's mark.

Thuja's amorphous layers of piano, organ, guitar, accordion, percussion, and electronics swirl together into woodsy environments of sound, reinforced by natural phenomena such as snapping sticks or scraping rocks.
But whatever it was Biota got wrong, Thuja is getting it right here (as they have on their previous releases.) I'm prone to think that what Thuja and a few others have been accomplishing as of late (note the Kawabata/Youngs VHF release for instance) is really what New Age always should have been.
