WE ARE GETTING 100 COPIES ONLY DEBUT RELEASE FROM THIS NEW BAND FEATURING STEPHEN O'MALLEY OF SUNN0)))), DANIEL O'SULLIVAN FROM GUAPO, AND SHORA'S VINCENT DE ROGUIN. TAKING ITS TITLE FROM THE ILIAD, THE MUSIC IS DEEP, COSMIC, AND EQUALLY EPIC, COMPLETELY UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU'D EXPECT FROM THREE SUCH HEAVYWEIGHTS.

DEBUT RELEASE FROM THIS NEW BAND FEATURING STEPHEN O?MALLEY OF SUNN0)))), DANIEL O?SULLIVAN FROM GUAPO, AND SHORA?S VINCENT DE ROGUIN. TAKING ITS TITLE FROM THE ILIAD, THE MUSIC IS DEEP, COSMIC, AND EQUALLY EPIC, COMPLETELY UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU?D EXPECT FROM THREE SUCH HEAVYWEIGHTS. MORE IN THE TRADITION OF NURSE WITH WOUND?S SPIRAL INSANA OR KLAUS SCHULZE?S CYBORG THAN ANY CONTEMPORARY TREND, THE TRACKS FLOAT ALONG IN A MASTERFUL COLLAGE OF ACTIVITY, WHERE CAREFUL SCENE CHANGES HIGHLIGHT O?SULLIVAN?S CLASSIC BUT ARTFULLY PLACED RHODES BOMBS, DE ROGUIN?S ORGAN, AND O?MALLEY?S GUITAR. BOTH CD AND LP EDITIONS ARE HOUSED IN BEAUTIFUL, CUSTOM JACKETS HAND-PRINTED BY ALAN SHERRY OF SIWA. EXTRAORDINARY EFFORT HAS GONE INTO EDITING, MASTERING, AND SHAPING THESE PIECES. THEY ARE NOT TOSSED OFF IMPROVISATIONS OR ?SIDE-PROJECT? ORPHANS. THE GROUP RECENTLY COMPLETED A SMALL EUROPEAN TOUR WITH JACKIE-O-MOTHERFUCKER?S ALEXANDER TUCKER, PLAYING DATES WITH WITH ULAN BATOR, THE NO NECK BLUES BAND AND NETWERK.
