This
is a new release from the creative folks from Polytoxicomane Philharmonie. It
comes in a cool dual sleeve digipack with the CD with 6 long songs from 9-17
mins in length and a DVD movie. I have heard the record alone and also watched
the DVD movie. The majority of the movie is a film of the band playing live in
the studio. I did not think that the whole thing came across that cohesively
but it was fun to watch and the music is pretty cool and sometimes amazing.. It
is hard to describe but this is the most free form, jamming and space rock like
the band has ever been. The two female vocals remind you of GONG at times but
there is a more lead vocal story telling role here and not just space whispers,
and poetry. These guys play such cool music but I think you need to watch the
DVD and hear the record, it worked better than stand alone. Cool to see some
people doing something different with musical media.
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
