One of my all-time favorite albums gets a vinyl reissue
I hope they do a good job cause The original Musea release is really good dynamic and punchy - just put Cabine 67 or La Ballade De Lénore and crank that volume and you will be receiving a lesson in dynamics !
Steve F. : "Music that reaches the Inner Core of the Evil Void"
Shub Niggurath were a brilliant, very dark, French Zeuhl band Using the unique instrumentation of female voice, guitar, trombone, piano/ harmonium, bass & drums, The original line-up (the only line-up that matters, imo) featured Alain Baullaud-bass, Franck Coulaud-drums, Franck Fromy-guitar, percussion, Jean-Luck Hervé-piano, harmonium, Ann Stewart-vocals and Veeronique Verdier-trombone. They seemingly burst out of nowhere with their stunning debut album on Musea "Les Morts Vont Vite a stunning very dark Zeuhl classic. influenced by Magma, Univers Zero & beyond and then dissapeared back into whatever dark hell had inspired them in the first place. BUT: what many didn't know is that in 1984/85, in preparation for a tour, they had recorded a 41' session that was issued only as a cassette tape. A copy of the tape had come to us in the mail with no contact information and I had thought it was pretty great, and then I never heard of them again until their album was released 3-4 years later! Now over 25 years later, these recordings, which feature 5 songs - only one of which was later re-recorded for Les Morts Vont Vite -Like Heresie, this is one of the creepiest records ever made.
