Joe Preston & Daniel Menche - Cerberic Doxology CD+DVD


$15.99

Anthem Records is pleased to present
Cerberic Doxology, a single piece statement from Joe Preston and Daniel
Menche, and an epic tome carved from some form of primordial stone. As
an album containing a regular CD audio side in addition to a DVD
audio/video side, this release breathes life musically and visually on
three different planes of existence. Firstly, as a 25 minute audio
recording, which is born of a vocal chant evocation from both Joe and
Daniel, of which layers expand, contract, and weave within each other
in an otherworldly, mysterious dronescape, in a way that feels like a
moment of mystical/mythical creation akin to Gyorgy Ligeti's
introduction to the monolith in the film 2001 (or Ash Williams'
mispronunciation of the Necronomicon and its results, if you prefer).
Secondly (on side 2 of this CD/DVD dualdisc), as DVD audio,
specifically mastered for this intent, which enables the absolute full
range of the recordings high and lows to be acutely present, and thus
expanding an already head shrinking experience. And thirdly, as the DVD
audio with a full length video, culled from footage of the mysterious
landscape of the pacific northwest, exhibiting its terrain, volcanic
activity and atmospheric disturbances, from obscure locations
throughout the region, in addition of footage of Sam Hill's Stonehenge
memorial located in southeastern Washington State. Combined with the
unusually forceful subtleties of the audio makes this an experience to
behold a multitude of occasions, with different effect, depending on
one's mind-frame. Cerberic Doxology is Presented as a CD/DVD Dualdisc,
packaged within a standard CD jewel case, with a large front sticker
stating each artist's name and affiliation, along with a clear
descriptor of the format's regular CD as well as DVD capabilities.
Points of note: *Joe preston is a veteran of so many exponential acts,
he should have a game named after him called "Six degrees to Joe
Preston". a few of these include Melvins, Snakepit, Earth, Thrones,
Sunn(0))), High on Fire, & Harvey Milk. The last of which has just
completed a highly touted release on Hydra Head, along with a
comprehensive US tour. *You could play "Six Degrees to Daniel Menche"
as well. Some of his recent collabs include an album on Mego with Kevin
Drumm, an album on Beta-Lactam Ring with Andrew Lilles, and and an
album on Alien 8 with Zbigniew Karkowski. This is only an accounting of
the last 12 months in a career that goes back to the 80's, containing
scores of individual releases.
