Earth-Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light1 CD now availble!
AVAILABLE NOW!
$10 EACH (+SHIPPING/HANDLING) http://www.southernlord.com/store.php
Following the “A Bureaucratic Desire for Extra Capsular Extraction” reissue, Earth‘s next offering is a brand new studio album, “Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light 1″, a fine testament to the fact that they have come a long way since 1989.
Drawing on inspiration from both British Folk-Rock bands the Pentangle and Fairport Convention and the North African Tuareg band Tinariwen, the new material, while still ‘heavy’ is much more fluid and melodically oriented, less dense and more textured and nuanced. It contains greater improvisatory interplay between the musicians. On one hand, the new album acknowledges previous recordings… on the other hand, there have been some significant changes which have given birth to yet another new sound, the main change being the line up and so joining Dylan and Adrienne on the album is cellist Lori Goldston (Nirvana, David Byrne, Black Cat Orchestra, Laura Veirs) and Karl Blau (K Records, Laura Veirs, Microphones) on electric bass.
There are many breaths of fresh air in this new record, many hopeful tones and drones as well as more eerie ones. One thing is for sure, this incarnation of Earth excels all expectations. $10 each
Track Listing:
- Old Black
- Father Midnight
- Descent to the Zenith
- Hell’s Winter
- Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light 1
