Tonight’s SC3 show is previewed.
Led by former Mr. Bungle guitarist Trey Spruance, Secret Chiefs 3 has been exploring a heady collision of Middle Eastern modes, twanging surf-rock, lush cinematic overtures, and corrosive death metal for a solid decade. In concert, the band is known for its complex orchestrations and dazzling virtuoso interplay as Spruance leads his ever rotating team of collaborators through his labyrinthine compositions.
From Musique Machine:
Sturmpercht – A wilde Zeit
A wilde Zeit is not the new album from Sturmpercht the masters and inventors of alpine- folk form; but it’s a fairly wonderful and consistent collection of odd’s and ends by the band which comes in near the 80 minute mark & offers up 18 varied tracks.Il Cielo di Baghdad – Export For Malinconique
When glockenspiel is listed among the instruments it’s not very likely that things will become rough. Italian indie group Il Cielo di Baghdad indeed aim for more dreamy sounds, full of melancholy.
