| june 2009 release ; second de stijl outing (after a “private press” style paste-on wonder) from lafayette, indiana’s haley fohr ...
some of the more destroyed-sounding music i’ve heard in a while, largely comprised of ms. fohr’s pained vocalisms (forwards, occasionally, but mostly in reverse), ominous chordal drones, & wasted, in-the-red style drumming ; nary a shred of form nor development ... highly recommended !!! |

| circuit des yeux
sirenum
070 lp
from a small town in the middle of the land of milk and honey, where the air is filled with the blossoming of the fruit trees for a big part of the year, comes these perfect little lilies of bands that make perfect little records that reflect this fertile and flowery region. it's a timeless land, and making records there is possible during this surely short period of history wherein the youth of this era feel as if they've solved the mystery of life and love and it's really loving that is the answer to everything.
all of which has nothing at all to do with circuit des yeux and sirenum, which was made in indiana, and there aren't exactly pipers at the gates of lafayette. sound? it's the sound of "issues", and the sound of "troubles". you don't get but one phone call and honey, the girl's voice makes this message a bit rubbly anyway. take the manic snorts of captain liberty, dissonant as chalk and the next moment as melodic as sharp yet slick, metal teeth. take the mermaid, 1988, turn the tides, gently, gently away. selected breath / silences / selected feedback. take an argument you have here with an empty street while the memory of high traffic is leaking back. sirenum has a real "spiritual food" vibe and it's fucking pain and pleasure relief in this real met en zonder sort of way.
this world is her world, and pipe if you like it .. |
