Escapade/Acid Mothers Temple, "A Thousand Shades of Grey" CD
$10.00
Description
"On this disc from German label Funfundvierzig, East meets West as two bands that travel similar (sort of) musical terrains come together for about an hour of music. There's a near equal sharing in those minutes, with two shorter tracks by Escapade and a longer, single track by Acid Mothers Temple.
Where AMT go out, Escapade seem to head inward. Theirs is a music that seems less interested in liberation or ascendance and more colored by the horror of isolation and the constraints of physical existence. Those pulsing rhythms sound like the beat of a heart that is aware it will eventually die. To these ears, adding the two together creates a sonic narrative that points two ways out of the dilemma of breathing: transcend or embrace the flesh. The tension between the two bands is most satisfying and makes a beautiful shade of grey."
