Three years in the making, this is the stunning new album from UK experimental / dark ambient act Band Of Pain (aka Steve Pittis of Splintered). It features contributions from Steven Stapleton and Andrew Liles from NURSE WITH WOUND, and Jean-Hervé Peron and Jeanne-Marie Varain from FAUST, as well as the usual suspects.
It is packaged in a beautiful high-gloss laminated 12" gatefold sleeve with artwork that is unique to this release by Steven Stapleton (Babs Santini). It also features calligraphy by the wonderful Geoff Cox, who is known for his previous work for Current 93 / NWW and, of course, the book "England's Hidden Reverse".
The format is a 2CD set, housed in die-cut pockets inside the sleeve - one CD for side one and one for side two. This keeps with the intended LP concept, but has CD fidelity for the best audio quality for this type of music. In the rear opening is a vinyl LP - an unplayable 12" record with exclusive Steven Stapleton etchings. A truly incredible audio / visual feast.
"A bevy of brooding post-punk and avant-garde arraignments... a macabre assemblage, this is a cannibalistic sonic banquet for sure, a Burroughsian nightmare of an album" (Juno).
