Moments (CSR295LP), Lull

By A Mystery Man Writer

Description

Isolationist, minimal, alienating Drone / Dark Ambient from Mick Harris (SCORN, FRET, ex-NAPALM DEATH). Staggeringly beautiful, glacial sub-bass sounds, deep ambient and thunderous tones, with subtle shifts. Originally released as a 99-track continuous CD in 1998 (Relapse), now presented on vinyl for the first time, Moments is expanded to 100 cuts, with bonus material from the original recording sessions. Tectonic rumblings and icy sound slivers move and swirl around each other, slipping into spaces between the molecules which make up your physical body and then break it apart in preparation for rearrangement. Moments of expansive emptiness and claustrophobic terror overlap one another and then overcome your mind as you journey through this bleak void of sound. At one moment warm and organic, the next, slowly slipping into a machine-like coldness to freeze and paralyze Sound as a vehicle to bring you through that doorway towards dimensions previously unknown. Hypnotic and soothing with a lingering sense of dread throughout (Carrion Kind). File next to Lustmord, Sleep Research Facility, Thomas Köner. Double LP in a textured gatefold sleeve. Ltd x 500 copies on 180gm brown vinyl. Ltd x 250 copies on 180gm black vinyl.
