Beschreibung
Recorded in the same two week session as Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light I by Stuart Hallerman (recorded Earth2!) at Avast! and mastered by Mell Detmer, Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light II carries on in the freely improvised, folkloric vein of the title track from the last release. Tape was rolled and spontaneous composition occurred.
Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light II is striking in many ways, not least in the wildly improvised nature of this particular recording. The songs 'Sigil Of Brass' and 'The Corascene Dog' perfectly emphasise how the interplay between the foursome becomes even more accomplished as the recording evolves, a testament to the dynamism of this particular line up. Meanwhile, the track 'His Teeth Did Brightly Shine' veers further into an entirely other direction, recalling sounds of the great British Acid Folk generation. This new material brings forth some highly original and deeply mesmerising tones throughout, at times more hopeful and less dark and death oriented than previous work.
As with the Angels 1 album the line-up again consists of Dylan R. Carlson (Guitar, Bass...Capt. of the ship!) Adrienne Davies on drums and percussion (on this release there is more percussion of all sorts), Lori Goldston returns on cello, and Karl Blau plays bass. . As with the first part, it again has truly amazing artwork by Stacey Rozich.
Tracklist:
1. Sigil of Brass
2. His Teeth Did Brightly Shine
3. Multiplicity of Doors
4. The Corascene Dog
5. The Rakehell
