Previous Battlecruiser releases have featured, among others, Pete Nolan, Antony Milton, CJA and Kneale himself in a variety of blackened guises. Along with Ming’s “The Kill” and Myrtu’s “The Burning Ground,” “Black Temple Carved in Smoke” is perhaps the most captivating and essential of these fascinating releases. Foregoing recognizable or parodic metal touch points, Bower opts instead to construct a singular, howling, polyrhythmic maelstrom of sound.<br /><br />The first untitled track finds Bower navigating through thick, foggy vistas of feedback and chugging percussion, blasting through the chaos with his characteristically searing riffs. Sections of the piece are reminiscent of “Ghosts from the Sun”-era Hototogisu, all white electricity and blistering guitar pyrotechnics. Track two is less rhythmic than its predecessor, opening with a torrent of feedback squeals and de-tuned riffing before spiraling downward into driving gloom and murk. Both tracks are fantastically heavy and quite compelling, my only complaint is the length of the disc, a shade less than fifteen minutes. Lets hope this isn’t just a one-off for Bower." 7/10 - Alex Cobb, Foxy Digitalis<br /><br /><a href="http://anonym.to/?/http://sharebee.com/e853dd5d">Here</a><br /><span class="date-nrml"></span>aum shinrikyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12864706741431253440noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-62035351732482160812008-05-29T01:17:00.005+01:002008-12-09T12:52:22.646+00:00Blue Sabbath Black Fiji + Helicoptère Sanglante - UntitledShort post follows:<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2E0PTxOuGfQKEraG-tb6itEb_muVRdi14YgRB4zPzOB1SAYHFWVgy5PNBKh6uX5mcDlKckupRPDzHrqc_QScbSvD7ZaeQ2SDBa6NcnzRU6cCbbh1GeT8PxTaadM27n14w1UAsH7b2kw/s1600-h/helicoptere.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2E0PTxOuGfQKEraG-tb6itEb_muVRdi14YgRB4zPzOB1SAYHFWVgy5PNBKh6uX5mcDlKckupRPDzHrqc_QScbSvD7ZaeQ2SDBa6NcnzRU6cCbbh1GeT8PxTaadM27n14w1UAsH7b2kw/s200/helicoptere.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205590541936678898" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /><br />Label: </span><a href="http://anonym.to/?http://www.countripsyde.com/">Countripsyde</a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format: </span>CDR<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released: </span>2007<br /><br />Five tracks of acerbic noise from this Parisian collab.<em></em><br /><br /><a href="http://anonym.to/?http://sharebee.com/ba3fe7c6">here</a><br /><br />*Blue Sabbath Black Fiji's<span style="font-style: italic;"></span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Lazer Saber</span> from last year has just been re-released on <a href="http://anonym.to/?http://abandonshiprecords.com/">Abandonship Records</a> in a tiny pressing of 50.

But where many bands give in to crapulous backroom antics or moonshine madness,<b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);"></b> Death Chants are endearingly rickety, yet undoubtedly focused. They combine loose playing with long drifts and tentative steps into areas like drone and free playing. There’s an immediately warm lo-fi atmosphere on <span style="font-style: italic;">Natural History</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>that appears to be rooted in the traditions of early American music. </p><p class="justify"> </p><p class="justify">The opening “A Dog in the Ether” begins conventionally on acoustic guitar and cello before gracefully flowing into areas of what should be on the border of discord. Instead, the cello swoops like John Cale’s viola, creating a raga-drone through the song. Following the same basic tenets, “River Road” tiptoes along through smog-infested feedback. A strum-along acoustic section moulds the song whole, as shimmering peaks and falls roll through. An accordion tries to steer the song back into the traditional world, but its foothold proves too loose, and the composition melts away like buffeting drifts of snow. The movements between wandering adrift and core melody make this 11-minute ride arresting from start to finish. </p><p class="justify"> </p><p class="justify">“States” wraps things up with a short ramshackle take on beginner’s garage rock, a decidedly odd touch. The loose and shaky percussion follows a battered acoustic guitar and kazoo-like sing-along vocal. There’s an unexpected flute line that, while eerily ethereal, holds the piece together quite well. </p><p class="justify"> </p><span style="font-style: italic;">Natural History</span> has many of the hallmarks of a debut – fresh, devoutly amateur and full of potential.

I imagine Mayan temples erected toward the sun-borne gods, and ancient ritualistic dances performed in the fire light by feather-adorned priestesses. It's one hell of a name that insinuates something monolithic, something great. So it takes some guts to name your band that. Thankfully on Heavy Eye of the Sun's latest album (and their debut before this, quite honestly), they certainly live up to these lofty expectations.<br /><br />Housed in a beautiful collage by the artist & photographer, Maryse Latulippe, "II" is the aural equivalent of a sacred talisman. It is enchanted with mystic spirits. This Montreal duo, comprised of Olivier Borzeix and James Schidlowsky, at times remind me of a more acoustic-based, freer version of The Skaters. Their voices bounce off each other like trees spiralling toward the sky. The opening track, "Comme les ailes des libellules," is an absolute mind-bender. Dueling, rapid-fire acoustic guitars destroy everything in front of them so that Borzeix and Schidlowky's voices can rise above the ether. It's perfectly executed and totally great.<br /><br />After following a similar track on the second track, the duo unleash some absolutely hypnotic folk goodness on "Shivers." Their voices, again, are the key here. High-pitched wails sound as if they're conjuring the essence of long-dead gods. "Shivers" is thick with layers of acoustic guitars, like a neverending cosmic thicket. Hints of banjo rise from the haze to show you the path home. This is truly brilliant stuff.<br /><br />"II" ends with the loose-blues of "Sun Spiralling Down." It's far more meditative than its three brethren, but is the perfect end to an excellent album. "II" is full of beautiful acoustic drones, steeped in decaying leaves and wrapped in walls of sonic ivy. It is masterfully organic in all the right places. "II" carefully carves out a niche like an archaic stream slowly etching its way toward bedroock. This is Heavy Eye of the Sun's journey to the sea.

Self-described as a folk album, "The Shield<br />that Pierces the Earth" doesnt exactly mimic Dylanisms a<br />la "Highway 61", as Nyoukis instead explores otherworldly terrain,<br />inspired partially by indigenous music from around the globe. From<br />the gamelan-like percussion explorations to the howling monkish<br />chants (and so much packed in between), "The Shield that Pierces<br />the Earth" is a one-man tribute to a large portion of the Folkways<br />library. Nyoukis also incorporates odd looping bits of sound and<br />electronics, and with the lo-fi recording and crackle of vinyl,<br />these fragments could easily be mistaken for a lost recording of<br />classic concrete sounds. Seaming it all together is Nyoukis<br />ability to give each sound a distinctly old-timey feel, producing<br />a fluid continuity between folk and non-folk terrain.

And as a novelty, a (tiny) cover. It's been emotional.<br /><br />Awesome variety on this release. Perhaps a little too much? Nah. There are more than noticeable traces of Neil Campbell on the final track. Ha. Here's some cryptic volcanictongue-isms for you:<br /><br />"New limited edition CD-R from Astral Social Club collaborator Tirath <b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Singh</b> <b style="color: black; background-color: rgb(160, 255, 255);">Nirmala</b> aka John Clyde-Evans. Another schtoof straight through the third eye from this q-tip, with lycanthropic looped vocals and knotty violin rags that re-situate the milky cosmic romance of Tony Conrad and Jack Smith in a thatch-covered barn somewhere deep in the mud. Also features some unerringly piloted sheng singing, distorto sine wave tone momes, a buncha clouds raining steel shots of chanter, bamboo flute and a cascade of loomping doom. A mouthful of cotton wool butterflys, from a guy who knows how to gargle a buncha significant modern alphabets. Highly recommended, as is every toot from his peeper." -Volcanic Tongue<br /><br /><a href="http://anonym.to/?http://sharebee.com/87075baf">download</a>aum shinrikyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12864706741431253440noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-27835096706891143752008-04-06T22:12:00.008+01:002008-12-09T12:52:24.316+00:00Son Of Earth-Flesh On Bone Trio - S/T<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6ppQ5if_sztrHMCypcrDt8OQCaL4ul6CDqRBlisYrQ7DDOP_eLEfNWI_ok23IdOo2p8pXApBVPbH8EOttxIRY0YrMgfc_oJiaW7WBEGomyYmNLnzlSrOTVvmogcWWyd44spo_ePc4yCA/s1600-h/soecdr-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6ppQ5if_sztrHMCypcrDt8OQCaL4ul6CDqRBlisYrQ7DDOP_eLEfNWI_ok23IdOo2p8pXApBVPbH8EOttxIRY0YrMgfc_oJiaW7WBEGomyYmNLnzlSrOTVvmogcWWyd44spo_ePc4yCA/s320/soecdr-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5186244221862249170" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Label:</span> <a href="http://www.apostasyrecordings.com/">Apostasy Recordings</a> (AP007)<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format:</span> CDR<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2001<br /><br />long out of print release consisting of three full early live shows.<br />originally packaged in shortened manilla envelopes, each with unique artwork.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tracklisting:<br /><br /></span>As If We Are A Number (A Stone For John Shaw's Beard)<br />(Pilgrims) Spirit Blanket<br />Dream Of A New Mountain<br /><br /><a href="http://sharebee.com/aa6c9353"><span style="font-weight: bold;">download</span></a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-9855562425880576502008-04-04T23:42:00.004+01:002008-05-27T19:17:55.439+01:00Tirath Singh Nirmala - Moor Cragg Mist<span style="font-weight: bold;">Label: </span>Self-released<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format: </span>CDR<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2006<br /><br />Penultimate upload here.

And no blurb, so I'm having to write something. The rest (Blossom Dawn Freckles, Moor Cragg Mist, Sahasri, Tattv-guna-mala 1&2 and Birch Clove Burst 1&2) - that's the rest to my knowledge anyway - shall be arriving on-screen shortly.<br /><br />Entirely instrumental effort, here. Moonlit Circles takes the raga and smothers it with some Eastern-inflected minimalism. Little tonal variation, quivered guitar strumming; beaten bells build and power through to a hypnotically nod-head ending. Smouldering Juniper takes you back to typical Tirath terrain: dual microtonal pipes slide over extended synth, leaving you with enough space to Pandit Pran Nath-along. Snowflowers Bloom, meanwhile, is a high-frequency chimed track - not so far from recent John Clyde-Evans output - which sits on speakers as fragile as a butterfly on a wheel.<br /><br /><a href="http://sharebee.com/4e9612e9"><br />download</a>aum shinrikyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12864706741431253440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-70438514674948818822008-03-27T11:46:00.023+00:002008-12-09T12:52:24.746+00:00Son of Earth - Carhole / Mancontinuing the son of earth vibe i thought i'd post two more of their earlier records. they demonstrate tremendous control focusing intently on the subtle interplay between sound and space, this has evolved even further in their latest offerings <a href="http://www.apostasyrecordings.com/sonofearth/recordings/ee.html">erotic empire</a> and <a href="http://www.apostasyrecordings.com/sonofearth/recordings/pet.html">pet</a>. these guys simply get better with age. enjoy:-<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv5zC84MBQc2KFdreCi0UEB1qdL3b5JSMGCOHBy-kIBDbOVBBoBe1QNY-J5jEJ7lJMwLePJY2XXWoghnXCeEVgEsBoZAtobZBIt9GRp-MSfa1haBZrRwy6JAEYoUT7P2Y3ihQ87ijJ9z8/s1600-h/carhole.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv5zC84MBQc2KFdreCi0UEB1qdL3b5JSMGCOHBy-kIBDbOVBBoBe1QNY-J5jEJ7lJMwLePJY2XXWoghnXCeEVgEsBoZAtobZBIt9GRp-MSfa1haBZrRwy6JAEYoUT7P2Y3ihQ87ijJ9z8/s320/carhole.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5182386924618613394" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-weight: bold;">Title:</span> Carhole<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Label:</span> <a href="http://www.apostasyrecordings.com/index.html">Apostasy Recordings</a> (AP021)<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format:</span> CDR<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2004<br /><br />A journey in three parts.<br /><br />Live recording of the trio of Matt Krefting, John Shaw and <a href="http://bonemallow.blogspot.com/2008/01/aaron-rosenblum-hills-are-really-homes.html">Aaron Rosenblum</a> at the Belchertown Carhole 2003.

Two sides, titled "Naked Float" and "Elimination Of Present Life", though the label also credits the A-side as "Son Of Earth", so I guess this beautifully lonely murk must be their theme song.

I'll let someone else do the talking...<br /><br /><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;" >'Maybe Ruchalski's most beautiful work yet, and another example of his densely layered, swirling sound constructions. Working from basic materials such as nondescript scrapes & buzzes, feedback, self-made motor mallet instruments, metal sheets, field recordings, vinyl loops from old 78's, one could easily imagine a bleak and/or very "difficult" music but neither is really the case as Ruchalski has a way of bringing real life to these inanimate objects, letting them breathe, sigh or sing in their own peculiar, rustic way. Sometimes even a narrative element is felt as if a story were being told (most likely a sad one - perhaps of the destiny of the WW1 soldier staring blankly at us from the collage on the cover?). Who knows? The music of Ruchalski remains shrouded with a sense of mystery to me. The underlying ideas are often familiar, like the almost obsessive study of the minutiae of sustained vibration.....(maybe it's "minimalism" to some extent?), or the environmental/field recordings thing .....but there's always something else in there, too. This LP contains mostly unreleased material (the side-long "Having It Out" and a shorter piece on the B-side), as well as some choice cuts from previosuly released CD-Rs "Moveable Sites" (Humbug011) and "Radio Journal" (Homemade Records).

The sole interference in these glistening arabesques is the hoary electric fretwork of one Robertinho on "Blues do Cachorro Muito Louco," the most explicitly fried track. Otherwise, Côrtes and Lailson are left to experiment in musty silence. Seemingly taped live, each track is a dry documentation of the duo's gently rambling improvisations. Far from the recombinant psychedelia of tropicalismo that reigned over the pre-hippie underground in Brazil's bustling metropolises five years earlier, Satwa play bed peace bards. In double-mono, or fake stereo, Satwa is raw, untreated mentalism translated into pure songflow.

Over this lulling undulation one can hear the whistles of distant trains passing by. The second track marries lightly stroked piano with resonating bells and chimes that are overshadowed briefly by screeching harmonics of bowed metal before the mournful cry of the train whistle returns. Underneath this swell, the steady insistent sweep of a sprinkler hovers into range.<br /><br />Over the next several parts of the piece, these basic elements are manipulated and modulated expertly to build a narrative in which individual events can be discerned (the slightly spooky piano figure from "Part Three", the "clock" striking the hour in the middle of "Part Four") but never interrupt the leisurely movement of the whole. As "Part Five" begins with gently plucked guitar frames chiming bells, one can easily picture the easy harmony of an elemental duet between a solitary farmhouse occupant and the wind chimes on the back porch. It is the first hint that acceptance and peace can be attained even amidst the turbulence of nocturnal noises.<br /><br />Once the delicate piano chords at the start of "Part Six" have been swallowed by gamelan-like echoic bells, a babbling brook emerges as the underpinning for Rebecca Klossner’s "singing bowls". The presence of unfettered water (as opposed to its earlier appearance in sprinkler directed form) is emblematic of the softening the piece has undergone over its length. The final "Part Eight" breaks like dawn illuminating the previous evening’s sinister room corners as merely an innocuous and essential meeting place for the walls of home." - steve rybicki (fakejazz)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tracklisting:</span><br /><br />Part One (5:17)<br />Part Two (7:25)<br />Part Three (6:42)<br />Part Four / Part Five (8:02)<br />Part Six / Part Seven "Night Pasture" (6:52)<br />Part Eight "For Rebecca" (4:19)<br /><br />Composed, performed and recorded by Edward Ruchalski.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Rebecca Klossner</span>: singing bowls and field recording on Part Seven.<br /><br /><a href="http://sharebee.com/a248e339"><span style="font-weight: bold;">download</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-9697588214614486982008-03-15T18:39:00.009+00:002008-12-09T12:52:25.761+00:00Various Artists - Naturalism<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KLa9bc5MFkM/R9wYCMjGAVI/AAAAAAAAADc/kgbajPS2Sko/s1600-h/68.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KLa9bc5MFkM/R9wYCMjGAVI/AAAAAAAAADc/kgbajPS2Sko/s320/68.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178040097576452434" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-weight: bold;">Label:</span> <a href="http://naturetapelimb.0catch.com/.htm">Nature Tape Limb</a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format:</span> CDR<br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2004</div><div><br />for me this record teems with life & spirituality, containing a world i could happily submerge myself in for quite some time! wonderful.<br /><br />"a compilation ranging from minimal forest droppings to ritualistic bloodbath songs." - nature tape limb<br /><br />"like an outpouring from all the forest creatures hiding under the protection of old growth trees. lay down and put this on headphones, and as soon as you close your eyes, you'll smell the pines in the distance." - foxy digitalis<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tracklisting:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span></span></span>The Nether Dawn - Talking Northoly<br />The Wooden Cupboard - Cabin In The Sky<br />Neil Campbell & Robert Hayler - Live<br />The Skaters - Fishing Continent Horizon<br />The Wooden Cupboard - The Sun Dances With The Animals<br />The Candle Magicians - Lanterns Of The Black Witch<br />CJA - Clutha<br />Calf - Iron & Wind<br />The Gnome Eaters - Fly A Garlic<br />Noun Cocoon - Silhouettes Of The Sabbath<br /><br /><a href="http://sharebee.com/23e9131e"><span style="font-weight: bold;">download</span></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-16935720551008767382008-02-18T14:49:00.007+00:002008-02-18T15:31:32.027+00:00Various Artists - Radio Phnom Penh<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.sublimefrequencies.com/images/radiopp72.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.sublimefrequencies.com/images/radiopp72.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Label:</span> <a href="http://www.sublimefrequencies.com/">Sublime Frequencies</a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format:</span> CD<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2005<br /><br />thought i would further diversify this blog by posting one of the best compilations to yet come out of sublime frequencies. the music here is infectious and that which leaves me revelling in all its multi-faceted glory. a must hear!<br /><br />"Rebel Guitars, Assorted Dialects, Heat-Stroke Synthesizers, and thats just a taste of this diverse assortment of Cambodian musical treasures you’ve NEVER heard before.

Spencer worked on this amazing recording for many many moons, spending a long time in the subterranean depths of the local museum, power-zoning on archetypal visions of death masks and energy centres. The result is one of the most conceptually unified trips to flash across his eyelids to date. Tiny orchestras of gamelan bells illuminate whole communities of overtone while tape wuzz spools into loops of roaring silence and almost subliminal speech and song-forms flit just on the periphery of yr ears. Elsewhere it sounds like a Hermann Nitsch ritual heard from 200 miles up, or an African Trips Festival illuminated by beautifully ornate carousels slow-spinning deep in the black desert night. Totally magical, ageless ritual and a mind-blower of the highest order.

Almost beyond music into a howl at the nightsky, the music wolves would make. From the worryingly quiet chimes to the terrifyingly intense calls, this unbroken music comes together into surges of crescendo. This is the sound of nature rebelling, calling out to their ancestors to reclaim the ground. Animal calls to the moon that put a chill in the heart of every person walking back home across the fields." - Lord of Misrule, Unbroken Circle<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tracklisting:</span><br /><br />Crystal Agony<br />Eternity Has A Landlord<br />Spirits And Retribution<br />Eternities Diamond Prison System<br />Walkin' Gilded Coals<br /><br /><a href="http://www.zshare.net/download/69961016c59f59/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">download</span></a><br /><br />ferraro's first release as the wooden cupboard entitled "boiling the animal in the sky" is available <a href="http://www.pseudoarcana.com/current2.html">here</a> (my preferred of the two if forced to choose).Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936074282062087083.post-89095423585197572052008-01-24T17:11:00.000+00:002008-12-09T12:52:26.389+00:00Taiga Remains - Moon Colored Dogs<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMRqb5QYOkE4soC5m9PWwgLCWUkyUv1DKCwECX0V8w27h6bfEO0f1j4DOnVdh_Qg0f2taXOgaNyWzP7k9tqEtER-_mIFkAoxXpegFKFIt3jCSk_kS9zBN4DLxtdXV2MIWCOVSjjzAewhE/s1600-h/cover_mooncoloreddogs.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMRqb5QYOkE4soC5m9PWwgLCWUkyUv1DKCwECX0V8w27h6bfEO0f1j4DOnVdh_Qg0f2taXOgaNyWzP7k9tqEtER-_mIFkAoxXpegFKFIt3jCSk_kS9zBN4DLxtdXV2MIWCOVSjjzAewhE/s320/cover_mooncoloreddogs.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159092721546854626" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Label:</span> <a href="http://www.studentsofdecay.com/">Students Of Decay</a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Format:</span> 3" CDR<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Released:</span> 2005<br /><br />two part 3" cdr released by taiga remains (alex cobb) on students of decay which had a very limited run of 50 copies. an overriding tension emerges and dissipates throughout these two pieces, incorporating just organ and strings with the most arresting of results. the sounds here make me feel as though i'm free-falling in some kind of rapturous descent; and once the second part ends, in my mind it continues, developing and shifting far beyond its 8 and a half minute duration. awesome.<br /><br />foxy digitalis review:-<br /><br />"...'Moon Colored Dogs' is a two-part sonic excursion into freezing Siberian waters, sunkissed and invigorated. Part one of this journey is a dense and methodic drone in the spirit of Birchville Cat Motel. It is like watching the sun first pierce the horizon on a perfect, snowy dawn. Shimmering guitars and subtle melodica notes fill the air, keeping you warm on this glacial surface. Cobb layers each instrument perfectly, creating something so dense that you can't help but be enveloped. It's quite an impressive introduction to the monster that is Taiga Remains. As good as the first part is, part two ups the ante. An overwhelming sense of melancholy wraps itself around "Moon Colored Dogs (part 2)." The guitars here sound like a swarm of bees making their way across the open expanses of the mid-Western United States. Underneath flows a river of organ drones that add organic magic to the proceedings. Again, Birchville Cat Motel is a jumping off point, but the somewhat abrasive nature to these sounds also remind me of the UK's mighty Vibracathedral Orchestra. Either way, this is an excellent and impressive debut from what will surely become one of the Rust Belt's finest.
