Really! Never got a chance to check them out though an old friend of mine said good things about them. Needless to say I ignored him.....'Wait'll ye hear this and this and this.....' :)))

I was playing that one a few weeks for the first time in years. I couldn't believe how good it was (and sounded)!

On vinyl, sublime post-everything improv...mostly electric guitar and non-intrusive percussion...

Charles - Eric Charrier - Silver





On Silver, multi-instrumentalist Charles-Eric Charrier directs his collaborators Ronan Benoit, and Cyril Secq, through a lesson in tension and release. Dismissing genre boundaries Silver deftly plants its roots on a plateau in a strange land somewhere between the worlds of psychedelic post-rock, electronic, improv jazz and modern composition. Over the course of five movements, Charrier and company illustrate how to successfully kaleidoscope an eclectic range of influences into a cohesive and unique whole. From the smokey sludged psych rock blues jam of 21 Echoes, the jazz lounge pitter-pat of brushed snares and tapped hats coalesced with analog synth and brass vibrations on 12 From, to the plucked and bowed folk strings and hand drums of 9 Moving, Silver draws a new musical blueprint for the post-everything generation.

'This beautiful album came to me out of nowhere from one of Experimedia's supporters... and what a fantastic surprise it was when I took a listen and discovered how great it was. More surprising yet is this is Clint's first album. One of my favorite albums of the year and one of those albums that just leaves you at a loss for words. Too beautiful for words. Take a listen and find out for yourself.

Limited edition of 148 hand-stained, numbered, and silkscreened copies, including hand-placed bones of local trees. Includes a photograph and album credit insert printed on 80# linen card stock, and a download code.'

On CD. An old favourite and one hell of a test disk. It confirms the quality of that new speaker cable anyway.

Fran wins.
Not violent at all but a fantastic album made by a bunch of ex heroin addicts and alcoholics who shared a squat in Brixton so obviously they called themselves Alabama 3. As the lyrics state.. "Sweet Goddam Motherfuckin' Country Acid House All night long ... ". The theme music from The Sopranos "Woke up this morning" was lifted from it.
