A good warm up of breathing exercises and scales prepared us for the long sweeping phrases of AND THE NIGHT SHALL BE FILLED WITH MUSIC which is now beginning to sound more fluid and delicate as we gain confidence. We sang it today as a two part round but the full effect of the harmonies will come when we sing in three parts.
BEAUTIFUL AFRICA is a great sing but really needs the alto harmony in the chorus. We did learn this some time ago and returned to it this morning, spending some time consolidating what some remembered from the past and giving new members a chance to learn it. We’ll return to it next week.
The Sydney Carter song JULIAN OF NORWICH has a chiming accompaniment on glockenspiels which Rosemary and Carol learned quickly while we sang through the verses for the benefit of those who missed it last week. It sounded good but could take another two instruments which we’ll add next week.
Remarking on how with all the coughing and tiredness at this time of year, we all really need a week in Majorca, the morning’s music certainly helped by getting our energy flowing and we ended, as last week, with SPRING, SPRING, SPRING!
Here’s another (bong) hit from the Elektrohasch label of Germany. Phased is the band and their new (and fourth) album comes with the unwieldy title of A Sort Of Spastic Phlegm Induced By Leaden Fumes Of Pleasure. They call their brand of noise “psychedelic deathrock” and it’s an accurate catchphrase. Phased play loud space rock but without any hippy cosmic peace n love stuff. When you’re floating in space you’re gonna get sick to your stomach and your eardrums will explode. Save yourself a ton of money and get this album rather than sign up for a trip to Uranus with Lance Bass on the next NASA express.
These 3 bald muthers (2 Swiss, 1 Finn) have spent a lot of time listening to Hawkwind, Black Sabbath, Can, early Pink Floyd, Chrome, Sleep, Electric Wizard and the first Stooges album. They’ve also spent a lot of lonely nights playing at ear splitting volume in their practice space coming up with eternal space boogie riffs that recall all their favorite albums but also bear their own personality. They’ve been together since 1997 so they know what they’re doing.
The 8 songs on this album were recorded and mixed in 9 days, which is pretty impressive given how complex some of the arrangements are. The root sound is basic power trio but with lots of extra noise layered on top to keep things interesting. Chris Sigdell handles guitar and vocals. His guitar playing brings to mind Dave Brock, Helios Creed and Ron Asheton at different times. Vocally, he bleats out the words like a cross between Nik Turner and Jus Osborne of Electric Wizard. Chris Walt has a fat, distorted Geezer Butler meets Lemmy tone that blends well with the guitar. Drummer Marko Lehtinen pounds hard and furious and gets bonus points for having an enormous Elvis Presley collection. DJ Fontana rules! Scott “Dr. Space” Heller guests on about half the album on synthesizer.
“A Surreal Deal” opens the album sounding like something that Sleep would have come up with if they had a chance to write songs with Nik Turner when they toured with him back in 1994. Heavy as hell but with excellent groove and only 3 and a half minutes. Even though the songs aren’t mixed into each other, the entire album flows nicely. Tempos are generally mid-tempo but occasionally speed up like on “The Osteopath” or slow down like on “I Come Toulouse.” Album closer “The Need” is the only super slow dirgey one and is only 2 and a half minutes. Most of the songs are a tidy 4 or 5 minutes but the long ones never get dull. “Maelstrom” is a 9 minute Sabbath-Wind crusher and “Nachspiel Revisited I & II” is the longest at 11 minutes and sounds like Electric Wizard taking on The Stooges’ “Little Doll.
Special mention must be made of the excellent lyrics on this record. Too often space/stoner/doom/whaterver bands take themselves too seriously or write throwaway lyrics and bury the vocals. Phased actually incorporate some humor in their words and they’re up front in the mix so everyone can enjoy them. Who wouldn’t want to sing along with “Tip Of The Sky” – “I smoke barrels of Hash in a starch wooden pipe, Lord I’m filling my lungs just to reach for the height.” They also don’t mind a little tokin n stroking on “Maelstrom” where the protagonist claims he “fell into a lesbian scene dream…a spellbinding hex of lovers of the same sex.” Nastay! Somewhere Elvis is smiling.

“After You” has a bit of a groove to it, the drums making more of a dramatic impression. The piano melody is pretty awesome and I absolutely love how they remove a note from the end of each run. Little things like that add a wrinkle of further interest, and actually something I had missed on previous listens. Midway through the tune, the keys make a dramatic shift and begin to sound all sorts of doom-y and ominous, all the while, the vocals just do their thing . . . building into greater and greater waves of tension before ultimately howling away in their tortured and desperate way. On top of these various musical aspects, My Own Private Alaska uses subtle dynamics by creating some space in between the seemingly never ending flurries of sound. It’s not a fancy technique or some use of studio technical wizardry, but it is highly effective in making the song morph into a large sounding piece of music, and something that occurs in the songwriting rather than in the production. Once again, going back to that “natural” sound of the music . . . if it can’t be done live, then it ain’t natural.
