Halo Manash - Language Of Red Goats

2013-09-22 / kettu / Reads: 2448

What I'm going to review now is rather offbeat and unlike the things I usually do. Music that is full of occult implications and dark ritualistic chants, oneiric visions with the moon glowing overhead, the fluids of life, death, dreams and fantasies. Deep and regular gong beats vibrate in the...

Piercing samples that are immersed in the growing tension of "Maison du Tigre" announce the seventh (not counting the re-edition of the first album and remix like Re-Pale) Diorama full-length album. It will not be easy. Pure nihilism and resignation. No pretending, no cheapness. And so it is until the...
