about

The talented multi-instrumentalist Kein from Ekaterinburg, Russia has already proven himself in such projects as Sol Mortuus, Prognostic Zero and Zinc Room, and now the time has come for his new incarnation - Church Of Howling Dog. The labels Evil Dead Productions and Zhelezobeton Distribution Division present his first full-length work "Umbra".

"Umbra" is slow hypnotic instrumental psychedelic rock. Reverberated guitar chords, slides and coarse fuzz, a dispassionate drum machine and psychedelic string percussion, delicate organ pads, the hum of guitar amplifiers and the wheeze of cello - these are the elements creating this tapestry. Pleasantly enough, the author knows how to treat silence as it plays a significant role in his compositions - each note takes its time to fade away, mesmerizing the listener with its vibrations.

Some familiar musical landmarks to be mentioned here are Earth albums "Hibernaculum" and "The Bee Made Honey in the Lion's Skull" (although Earth is more monotonous and straightforward), and the famous OST for the Jim Jarmush movie "Dead Man" by Neil Young.

Талантливый мультиинструменталист Kein из Екатеринбурга уже зарекомендовал себя в таких проектах, как Sol Mortuus, Prognostic Zero и Zinc Room, теперь же настало время его нового воплощения - Church Of Howling Dog. Лейблы Evil Dead Productions и Zhelezobeton Distribution Division представляют его первую полноформатную работу "Umbra".

"Umbra" - это медленный гипнотичный инструментальный психоделик-рок. Реверберированные гитарные аккорды, слайды и грубый фузз, бесстрастная драм-машина и психоделическая струнная перкуссия, мягкие органные пэды, фон гитарных усилителей и хрип виолончеля - вот элементы, из которых соткано это полотно. Приятно, что автор умеет обращаться с тишиной, отдавая ей немалую роль в своих композициях - каждая нота затихает столько, сколько ей нужно, зачаровывая слушателя своими меркнущими вибрациями.

В качестве знакомых музыкальных ориентиров можно привести альбомы Earth "Hibernaculum" и "The Bee Made Honey in the Lion's Skull" (хотя музыка Earth в целом более монотонна и прямолинейна) и знаменитый саундтрек Нила Янга к фильму Джима Джармуша "Мертвец".
