I Don't recommend necking a spicy pot noodle in this sticky weather. I just did it just then and totally regretted it.... This ice cool Lull CD should cool me off. Lull is an alias of Mick Harris of Scorn ex-napalm death and a whole load of other obscure aliases. Mick Harris fuckinf rules and that is a fact. 'Like A Slow River' is a smart collection of isolationist drones and eerie ambient sounds that recall a cold arctic wind. Very mysterious sounding and very subtle in its execution the howling breeze gently whispers and hovers above glacial shimmering tones. The artwork is very fitting and compliments the sounds perfectly. Quality gear and highly recommended. I don't make a habit of eating pot noodles by the way...

After a long period of silence, Glacial Movements Records is glad to announce you the return of the most important representative of ambient isolationist music ever: the wonderful English artist Mick J. Harris aka LULL (Scorn, Painkiller, Napalm Death).Unquestionable genius of the last century's second half European music and point of reference about the rising isolationist aesthetics, being on the same wavelength as post-rock last scenaries.

 

"Like a slow river" it's a work characterized by sharp and minimal atmospheres but also dark, cold and huge such as big bodies of ice which slowly move carried by an endless river. The five compositions of "Like a slow river" reach the high expectations of the previous works such as "Cold Summer", "Continue" and the "Murder Ballads" trilogy with Martin Bates. With no doubt, this is the coldest and darkest work ever composed by this pioneer of industrial-ambient music. You all will be led to the oblivion of your existence....the freezing darkness of these glacial night is going to come down on your bodies and minds....you'll fall in your deepest sleep with the far echo of glacial runnings....

....the way to eternity is in front of you.....
