I remember first hearing this, totally unprepared for pagan-chanting-bagpipe-industrial-fusion. I was expecting the usual ESP label mix of D.I.Y. folkrock and freejazz. I played it for everybody I knew - it's not just exciting and primal, it makes you realize how wide the possibilities for music still are. CRUSHINGLY, they spend the rest of the album thumping around and jabbering. All they had to do was bring stuff in and out around the beat and keep it going....
@TheMagmagoblin I agree with you for the most part, the rest of the album is fairly indulgent, but the second to last track, Toth Scribe I, is brilliant. It's a great experiment in ambient noise, the low hum of didgeridoos combined with the crushing blows and roars of some terrible creature and a mournful fiddle. It's terrifying.
@SenorUkulele Yeah. People are going to hate me for saying this, but when I was speeding up Toth, Scribe 1 to hear what they were saying slowly. I found out that Toth, scribe 1 is just Caledonia slowed down a lot.
wtf? i like. more
