RANGDA - LIVE IN KREFELD (10")


"In 1980, 33 years ago, a band came to Krefeld, a small town at the Lower Rhine Area, which later became one of the most influential bands of their decade. This Heat from London, a trio who´s sound comparison to Industrial rock does not really hit the point, but which does not fail as well..The record button was pushed and the recording which was released under the title "Live In Krefeld" reached independent and underground appreciation. 30 years later, another influential band came to town, a trio as well. Americans. Divers in their setting, with impact, virtuosity and vigour. Rangda. An underground-supergroup consisting of Chris Corsano (Björk), Ben Chasny (Six Organs Of Admittance) and Richard Bishop (Sun City Girls). Complex, exotic, instrumental rock with oriental taste. Rangda came twice to town (2010 & 2012) and the golden nuggets of each performance are now available on a limited edition 10". The title is: "Live In Krefeld". The 8 minutes epic "Silver Nile", the centerpiece from their recent album "Formerly Extinct" is accompanied by a bone dry Version of "Night Porter", performed long before the release of the album version. "Serrated Edges", an exploding wall of noise, caught the virus of improvisation, and comes close to heavy free jazz at times. Similar dynamic structures can also be found on early SST releases."
