Description
Vinyl is tiptop, sleeve míght look used. In doubt, ask for details. All those records belong to a now defunct record store. 99 % of them are straight from the warehouse, means they never have been touched by a record player. Lots of rare collector items can be found here. I will ship worldwide, don`t hesitate to ask for your specific postage rate.
Originally released on vinyl in the UK by United Dairies in 1988 (& since bootlegged in Japan & Australia). Stringed drone and measured organ pulsebeat. Much chanting, and the rhythm wends like the devouring dog on the cover. Circular and passionate. This quite frankly is an intensely beautiful recording. Steven Stapleton from Nurse with Wound and Richard "Dick" Rupenus from The New Blockaders are purportedly behind Masstishaddu. A limited quantity was pressed and, for the most part, it was overlooked and fell into an abyss of collector-talk and rumors. The low and buzzing drone of secret instruments underscores a lava flow of nonsense chants, violins, grunts, and various percussion. The pulse of these sounds is simultaneously warm and frigid as though through the music the difference between life and death was seperated. Whatever words might be spoken during this procession of yearning melodies and utterly ethereal voices is perhaps best left for the Gods. The music burns slowly and washes the space it occupies with sweet and smokey incense, but the interplay of the voices and instruments emanates a bright and insistent energy that escapes the world of words and can only be described, with caution, as a feeling or a presence. Whatever secrets the music holds, they are a fountain of spiritual beauty and unknowable terror. Though the album might burn brightly, it also conceals an old and patient terror. Listening to this record at night gave me chills more than just once. It's as though the character of the record changed with my dispositions: if fear was in my heart, then it was fear Masstishaddhu played for me. If I were happy, then the joy of the Gods shone down upon me and relaxed every fiber of my being. Releases like this feel incredibly special not just becausethe music is unique and excellent, but because the entire package works well together. For the first time in a long while, I wanted to sit down and go over the titles of the songs, the artwork, and childlike rhyme that accompanied the music. I was completely absorbed in the entirety of the album from beginning to end and there were times at work or when I was out and about with friends that I found myself hungering to listen to the music.
