Altar of Eden - Chimeras [IMPORT YELLOW VINYL] – New LP

$ 25.00

Thanks to Drunken Sailor for sending Green Noise the last copies of the color-vinyl edition (100 pressed in yellow). Picking up where the last long-player left off, this maybe even has more urgency, working harder to escape from the black, gray madness, burning like a branding iron, slashing like razor wire, pounding into your brain with the manic gatling gun drumming...like the last one, wrapped up tight in tension and menace, trying to rip free but the darkness too integral and internal to escape. -- winch (green noise)
<a href="https://drunkensailorrecords.bandcamp.com/album/chimeras-lp">Chimeras LP by Altar of Eden</a>

Originally released on tape in 2021 and mastered for vinyl by North London Bomb Factory Mastering. Second LP from the project led by Albert Limones (Nosferatu/ Creamers) following on from The Grotto Screams in 2021. Skeletal, brittle and skittish punk. Complex, layered tones with wobbly chorused bass, jagged drum patterns and bristling guitar. Amongst the rubble, 'Limones vocals are everything that hold this together, piercing and primal. Recalling Christian Death, Bauhaus, but Altar of Eden really stand alone The LP sounds like it’s been pulled from some tape archive from 1985. Not that it’s dated in any way. It’s just along the same strand of DNA..
Essential. First 100 on Yellow Vinyl.
