Dead C - Patience

Patience is both appropriate and inappropriate as a title for the latest releaseby The Dead C inappropriate because it s been only two years since thelast album, which in Dead C Time is but the flicker of a candle; appropriatesince the key to enjoying their sounds is willingness to sit down, listen and letthe music take over your mind. These four unforgiving and intense trackswill not be confused with the work of any other band.Recorded in Dunedin over the Southern summer of 2009/10, Patiencecaptures a restless band that never settles into any form. The trio of MichaelMorley, Bruce Russell and Robbie Yeats makes their improvised musicsound like the most substantial ever recorded, no matter in what directionthey go. Here, vocal-less, thick and thundering electric drones compound andretreat like a Pacific Ocean of noise.Morley once again provides the artwork and continues in his color palatteof late. Its circular, flowery texture provides the perfect mandala for contemplationwhile lost within the deep meditations that Patience inspires.Vinyl pressing of 1000 copies, includesfree digital download coupon.
