A STORM OF LIGHTÂ Feat. Josh Graham (Red Sparowes/Neurosis)
+ NURSE (Trento)
Freitag 19.09.08 PAPPERLA, Bolzano/Bozen
Start: 20:00 Uhr – Ende 22:00 Uhr (TAKE CARE)
The debut release from Brooklyn, NY trio A Storm of Light is anything but posthumous. However, within its murky, suffocating depths there lies little certainty about the origin and veracity of the words bellowed by guitarist Josh Graham (also Neurosis visual director, Blood and Time, Battle of Mice and formerly of Red Sparowes) as mouthpiece of the album’s protagonist. Graham is joined on the album by bassist/vocalist Domenic Seita (ex-Tombs, ex-Asea) and drummer Pete Angevine of Satanized. Since this recording, rhythmic pugilist extraordinaire Vincent Signorelli (Unsane, ex-Swans) has signed on as second drummer. As you’d guess by the pedigree, A Storm of Light is brutally hard-hitting. However, the group’s haunting harmonic drone meshing guitar, vocals and subtle keyboard layers gives listeners a sense of slow suffocation in waves of noise rather than straightforward pummeling.Â
