SANDERS KARL - CD SAURIAN EXORCISMS

Popis - SAURIAN EXORCISMS:
Reissue on CD. In 2009, four years after the release of his debut solo work, 'Saurian Meditation,' Nile founder and visionary Karl Sanders returned with 'Saurian Exorcisms.' After taking listeners on a hypnotizing ride with 'Meditation,' Sanders upped the ante and dimmed the darkness on 'Exorcisms,' diving into a disturbing, cinematic expression of what might happen if one spent too much time in a deep Saurian Theta State, dabbling too closely with the dangerous spiritualism that lies beneath. Drawing on broadened inspirations ranging from Tibetan, Hindu, Arabic, and ancient Egyptian spiritual themes, 'Saurian Exorcisms' - alike its predecessor - explores the use of unique and exotic instrumentation like the baglama saz (Turkish lute), electro-acoustic glissentar and more. Blending ethnic flavors with emotive vocals and chants ranging from soothing to disturbing, pounding ancestral rhythms, trancelike atmosphere and weeping, wailing, soaring, bewitching guitars, the album transports listeners into what Lambgoat, upon the album's release, described as "dark, mystic soundscapes filled with ancient spirits, mind altering visions, and catacombs complex."
