What their label says...
'Megaritual' is the final album in the series initiated and recorded by Omar Rodriguez Lopez in Amsterdam. Committed to tape in 2006 and mixed the following year, the album features nine instrumental tracks performed solely by Omar and his brother, Marcel. Accomplished multi-instrumentalists, there are few moments on the album that do not give the impression that the duo are in fact a "full" band, though perhaps not one as populated as The Mars Volta. Opener "A Device Imagined to Turn" rocks and rumbles in a similar manner to that band's anthemic "Goliath"; the somnambulant "Bells at the Slipstream" and "Good is Repaid with Evil" combine piano and synth melodies in a manner recalling Vangelis' soundtrack for Blade Runner; album closer "Dead Hisses to Match Our Own" stomps and wails in psychedelic abandon. 'Megaritual' is another compelling and unpredictable entry in the growing Rodriguez-Lopez canon, sure to satisfy the casual passerby and the committed fan alike.
