ARUM LILIES - Subsurface Aquifers CD
Subsurface Aquifers is not an album of shallow industrial nihilism
or typical power electronics misanthropy. It does not allow itself to be
defined so easily. As such, it demands more from the listener - but
also offers more.
ARUM LILIES - Subsurface Aquifers CD
12.00€
Release of October 2023.
Limited edition of 120 copies, comes in digi-sleeve.
The arum lily (zantedeschia aethiopica) is a species of flowering
plant in the family Araceae, native to southern Africa. What does this
beautiful flower have to do with experimental industrial music? The
rather obscure second album of Arum Lilies, a brainchild
of Mark Groves (Von Einem etc.), does not provide answers.
What it does provide, however, is an album of vaguely unsettling,
eerily obscure experimental electronics. Harrowing, subtle atmospherics
clash with moments of eardrum shattering industrial noise; warbling
pseudomelodies are offset by crackling static
and piercing feedback; ominous vocal samples are layered on passages of
tightly controlled minimalism. Subsurface Aquifers is a piece of music
that migrates between poles, from an almost ambient sparsity of
expression to exuberant bursts of chaos.
