...according to our Phil on 17 April 2008.

Steve Moore is that geezer from Zombi who had that there 'Henge' LP out recently on Static Caravan. I like this guys stuff, he's like an oldskool synth producer making sci-fi/ horror/ zombi style electronic music. John Carpenter always spring to mind when I hear this stuff but it could easily soundtrack a George Romero flick. I like his use of repetition and the way he subtley introduces different layers of synth sounds. 'Demo 2003' is less proggy than 'Henge' and I reckon if you're into the Zombi tracks you'll be well into this slab of blue wax on HLAVA Temple.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

You may have already heard Steve Moore's work as one-half of the unbelievably awesome prog-rock instrumental duo Zombi, or through his phenomenal first solo-album called "The Henge" (Relapse/Static Caravan, 2007). Now Moore gives us "Demo 2003," a re-issue of his first solo recordings from the turn of the millenium. In contrast to Zombi's tightly structured progressive epics, "Demo 2003" is an exploratory, psychedelic meditation. Over the course of its 10 tracks, including the previously unreleased "Fever Dream", "Demo 2003" explores psychedelic paths through dark atmospheres and drifting harmonies. Smaller in scale than "The Henge," these tracks document Moore's initial fascination with analog synthesizers, focusing more on experimental timbres and droning ambience than on composition or form. This is why this long-player becomes the soundtrack of the mind. It is paranoid, monumental music that hypnotizes the listener with an unholy mix of gloomy, nightmarish, electronic ambiences and the neverending and almighty cosmic beauty
