Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno - IAO Chant From The Cosmic Inferno (2005)



Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno - IAO Chant From The Cosmic Inferno (2005)

If any band deserves the mantle of most uncompromising psychedelic band, I can't think of anyone that comes close to these guys. This is actually a cover of
Gong's 'Master Builder' from their masterpiece 'You' album, done as a memorial to Pierre Moerlin recently passed away, the great Gong percussionist. This
whole cd encompasses that one song given the overwhelming AMT treatment but actually going through a series of changes and developments making it one of the
most compelling works this band has done. About mid-way through begins a plateau of sonic, trance-inducing complexity that is shere ecstacy, lasting for over
ten minutes; and then following a return to the chorus/chant resumes the pulverizing sonic improvisation that turns the air into liquid and deconstructs
reality as we know it. I was lucky enough to catch these guys performing and they closed the show with this set and I believe Kawabata Makoto truely made
innanimate objects bleed with torture; one of the most devastating performances I have ever seen! (amazon.com)
