Secular Works, Vol. 2

Brilliant union of early music and rock. Strong Cardiacs vibes. I find a lot of chamber rock to be meandering and aimlessly angular. However this stuff is different, the compositions are extremely tight and diverse. The instrumentation is sparse and rickety, but has these brilliant flashes of grandiose orchestration, it's very balanced. I don't think I've heard a more successful integration of early music into modern forms before. Absolutely a modern masterpiece of progressive "weird" music.

Hells yeah, major "Made Flesh" vibes off of the first two tracks. Always here for for a Badalamenti/Lynch reference. Thanks for making quarantine a little more bearable

Punishing and soothing, accessible and complex... The most played album from my BC collection.

A mind-blowing batch of jazz-informed hardcore exploding with drill-press riffing and throat-destroying howls. Really great!

I love this doomy sludge song with the high vibrato over the top it just tickles my brain so good.
