In a stylish digisleeve limited to 1000 copies, they are finally back! Five years after the last fullength outing "Oedipus dethroned", those awaiting the Swedish action group Irm's new work are rewarded. In the meantime, Erik Jarl has been busy with his solo-project, having released sombre droning recordings on Segerhuva, Annihilvs and Malignant to name but a few. On the other side Martin Bladh has focussed on performance art, contemporary moviemaking, and also some solo recordings. Both becoming legends on their own, and together, through the unity of Irm - becoming cult!
This double CD set shows a maturation without borders, from the most organic ambiences to building walls of disintegrating metalscrapings, from shrieking dynamic textures to soft eerie metabolism. This is a physical theatre, the shell of body and mind has cracked and the grating lyrics blossoms out fully. A truly epic work, undoubtedly rich, rising sounds echo and emerges slowly, changing temperature. Managing finally to capture the emotional experience of their liveperformances into their studio material. A soulmoving violent beauty and a vicious cathartic organic experience! Seldom does a group in this genre of music so brutally define a massive 113 minutes of the living artists dream.
