WISSEM JOZEF VAN AND JIM - VINYL AN ATTEMPT TO DRAW.. [VINYL]

Popis - AN ATTEMPT TO DRAW.. [VINYL]:
'An Attempt To Draw Aside The Veil' is Jozef van Wissem and Jim Jarmusch's second release as a duo for Sacred Bones Records, following 'The Mystery Of Heaven', and its narrative picks up where that album left off. Like 'The Mystery Of Heaven', this album delves into the theology of William Blake and Emanuel Swedenborg, this time also exploring the work of Russian occultist and philosopher Helena Blavatsky. The album is mostly instrumental, so the dialogue between the esoteric thinkers who inspired it and Van Wissem and Jarmusch is expressed primarily in the song titles. Musically, the album finds much of its power in minimalism. Van Wissem's lute traces the outlines of subdued electronics and ominous guitar drones laid down by Jarmusch.
