CHAOS ECHOES – remains – 2xCD digisleeve

Remains is a collection of live recordings.
The first disc, Ecstasy with the Nonexistents, is a soundboard recording of a full live set from 2018. Assembled with great care, this set list was only performed in concert once. The concept was to reinvent the songs, re-arranging pieces from Transient and Mouvement into a continuous three-part suite. The first section is slow, more self-centered than introverted, and obsessive. The second section is atmospheric, dominated by improvisations with bells, flutes, shamanic drumming, and mantra-like vocal patterns. The final section is carnal, wild and intuitive, completing the journey from an aggressive, selfish state to one of abandonment and sharing.
The second disc, IIIII, is a compilation of studio outtakes, alternate versions, and live recordings spanning 2012 to 2016. As always, the material is linked conceptually and through the mix in order to create a single long piece that evolves as it goes and echoes itself. The band felt it was important to share these pieces before it all was buried under ashes and dust.
