Don Darlings - Don Darlings - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Thomas Jensen is hardly known as a Wagnerian, and yet this complete First Act of Die Walkure - with an all-star Danish cast - is paced and shaped with a keen ear for drama. CD2 continues to expand the Jensen discography with works by two composers intimately associated with Wagner, his father-in-law Liszt and his Belgian disciple Franck. The concert overture Piazza del Popolo is a forgotten showpiece which the Danish composer Walther Schroder drew from his score to a silent movie directed by A.W. Sandberg. All the previous volumes are available and in stock.

Most of the great progressive underground bands of the '90s would not exist if it weren't for them.- Ben Weinman, lead guitarist & primary songwriter of The Dillinger Escape Plan. Was DAZZLING KILLMEN a hardcore band? A metal band? The world's gnarliest progressive-rock quartet?InchYesInch is the easy answer, but only because it's easy to rewind through two decades of genre fragmentation to hear Dazzling Killmen's influence on any number of Inchmath-metal,Inch Inchprog-coreInch and similarly classified bands. At the time, however, this St. Louis quartet occupied a genre of one. When SKiN GRAFT released the Killmen's 1994 sophomore album, InchFace of CollapseInch, that genre had it's touchstone.Inch- Excerpt from Aaron Burgess' liner notesInchOne of the best post-metal records ever madeInch. - Fact MagazineInchThe band formed in the St. Louis, MO area, and forged it's singular sound with almost no music scene support for such a fringy concept - technically impeccable playing enabling whiplash stop-starts that recalled John Zorn's Naked City more readily than any rock group one could name, cathartic and discordant guitar stabs, a jaw-dropping rhythm section, arrangements of baroque complexity, and a harrowing, overbearing, inescapable sense of pure dreadInch. - Dangerous MindsLoud Life at Alternative Press magazine declared it the top album of the 90's based on the following criteria 1) Avoidance of formula or cliché. 2) Dexterity of rhythm section, 3) Quality of album's production values, 4) Lack of predictable lyrical subjects - Satan, Straightedge, Viking folklore, etc. InchSounds like Dave Bruebeck's Time Out played through Carcass' PA system.InchRemastered from the original analog tapes and packaged in a deluxe six panel Digipack with a 16 page booklet of liner notes, interviews and comics.
