About this product

2017 . A few years ago Kranky received an anonymous email with a link to three tracks and a simple message InchHi, maybe you would be interested in this music.Inch The songs were instantly striking extraordinarily slow, somber, and spacious, each vaulted cathedral chord reverberating poetically into the distance, the melodies rolling out like fog across a cemetery. Captivated, Kranky requested more, receiving a single word in response InchYes.Inch Then, nothing. Eventually, three months later, another email with slightly more information was received a name (Irma Orm), a location (Stockholm), and a bit of context (she worked alone, and progress on music was slow but steady). Fast-forward to mid-2016 the album is complete Nektyr, by Demen, and it is breathtaking. Hermetic gothic swan songs conjured from funereal piano, twilit ambience, minimalist percussion, and spellbinding vocals. The mood is lulling and rich but lost in sorrow, stark grey structures looming in the night. Majestic open spaces between notes heighten the melancholic grandeur of Orm's arrangements, blurring the line between lament and lullaby. The songs don't end so much as ebb away, succumbing to their own downcast beauty.

David Howard - Spark   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Spark, is a collection of songs written by Karin Bergquist & Linford Detweiler of Over The Rhine (title track, 'Spark'), Jackson Browne, David Gray, Sara Hickman, Jeff Black, the unlikely duo of Slaid Cleaves & Woody Guthrie, and still more revered songwriters. A central theme that runs the course of the whole album can be summed up in the closing line to David's original song, Cicadas 'You are. It's Life. Rise up and sing!'

Nevermen - Nevermen   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2016 , the debut album by this alt-rock band formed by Faith No More's Mike Patton, TV On The Radio's Tunde Adebimpe and rapper/producer Doseone. This has been highly anticipated ever since the project was announced in 2008. Nevermen is neither side-project nor super group; it's merely meant to be - a years-in-the-making partnership in which these men shared all duties, discovering their collective sound with the sort of glee and freedom usually reserved for first-timers. Amid this wild, weird churn of rock, pop, rap, soul, and other, it's shockingly easy to lose track of who's singing at what moment, and that's the point to quote Tunde/Adam/Mike in song, InchThe frontman digests it's self.Inch Nevermen, the album, finds these three giants shredding their egos to get at the heart of why they do what they do, to explore the hopes and fears and wins and losses of anyone who carves career out of what started as dream.

Necro Deathmort - Overland   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2017 . Formed in London 2007 by Matthew Rozeik and AJ Cookson, the duo Necro Deathmort create intriguing and alluring blends of dark ambient, noise, synth driven beats, cinematic soundscapes, and doom-like heavy drone. They seamlessly intertwine these styles and have amassed an impressive and prolific catalog, appealing to fans of electronic music, noise, and doom metal. The duo has played with such artists as The Haxan Cloak, Yob, Oranssi Pazuzu, Dalek, Ulver, and Atari Teenage Riot, to name just a few, and appeared at such notable festivals as Roadburn, Supersonic, Amplifest, and Desertfest. Overland, their eighth full-length album, continues where last year's The Capsule left off, yet presents itself as a different observation, one more dynamic and layered.
