Keaton Henson - Parader - VINYL LP

180gm vinyl LP pressing includes . Listen closely to the end of Keaton Henson's 2013 album, Birthdays, and you'll hear the sound of a door clicking shut. Listen even closer to the start of 2016's Kindly Now, and you'll hear that same door reopening. In a six-year career in which Henson's work has been as diverse as it has been prolific, it is this small act of opening and closing the door, of letting the world in and shutting it out, which continues to form the struggle at the center of his art. More masterfully than ever before, Henson's third album builds upon the tension between stripped back, transparent confessional piano-ballads, and layered, experimental outbursts of mournful orchestration. Kindly Now is the natural culmination of a six-year journey of broad and fearless experimentation into a range of genres and mediums. Every tool at Henson's disposal is unified and brought to use in this highly wrought and unflinching album which, when experienced as a whole, becomes greater than the sum of it's parts.

Johann Sebastian Bach is always seen as a keyboard virtuoso, but he must also have been a very good violinist. At least that is what his son Carl Phillip Emanuel reports and that he was better able to lead the orchestra with his violin than from the harpsichord. Whether Bach wrote his violin concertos for himself or for a guest soloist - possibly the virtuoso Johann Georg Pisendel, who was a friend of his - can no longer be determined today. Two of Bach's violin concertos have survived, which the violinist duo Florian Deuter and Monica Waisman split between them, as well as the Double Concerto in D minor for two violins and orchestra BWV 1043. The two soloists and their ensemble Harmonie Universelle complete the programme with a second Double Concerto in C minor BWV 1060R, the original version of which has not survived. However, Bach himself had arranged the work for two harpsichords, from which this version for two violins could be reconstructed.

With Inch24/7 HateInch, SURGICAL STRIKE have reached a new milestone. The album is nothing less than an absolute must-have for all lovers of thrash metal and combines technical precision with breathtaking speed, leaving no room for compromise.
