Skullflower This Is... CD

Sale Price:$4.00 Original Price:$10.00

Available again after several years of out-of-printness. This was greeted with complete mystification when released, being decidedly non-riffy. 14 years on from release, it seems a logical step in the flow of UK underground output that spawned Sunroof!, Vibracathedral, Jazzfinger, et al.

Available again after several years of out-of-printness. This is exactly the same as the previous pressing, cept' for a fix to the original CD label art, which was lost - it was sorta messed up anyway. This was greeted with complete mystification when released, being decidedly non-riffy. 14 years on from release, it seems a logical step in the flow of UK underground output that spawned Sunroof!, Vibracathedral, Jazzfinger, et al. It's a good deal less intense than recent Hototogisu and SF output that's had all dials set to "annihilate." The music here is an authoritative re-working of some of the ideas that first surfaced on their Argon CD (released by Freek). The modal structures and experiments with bowed instruments and horns that surfaced on that record are redefined and sharpened in terms of sound quality and execution, providing an extremely fulfilling listen for both the SF acclimated and the novice alike. The 40 minute "The Pirate Ship Of Reality Is Moving Out" was recorded live to DAT at a concert with Richard Youngs on extra guitar, and is the only SF live recording of such high fidelity. Also has very nice full color Matt Bower artwork all over. 4 tracks, 78 minutes.
