    David E. Williams ‎– Hospice Chorale

    octubre 30, 2017

    David E. Williams – Hospice Chorale
    Label: Old Europa Cafe ‎– OECD 238
    Format: CD, Album, Digipak
    Country: Italy
    Released: 2017
    Style: Experimental, Industrial

    Although conceived as a return to his early days of lyrical nihilism and musical minimalism, Williams’ 7th full length release serves more as an old fashioned revue of his strengths and idiosyncrasies, from the gallows cabaret of “The One Who Doesn’t Die” through to the vocal-free power electronics of “Catholic Nihilist.

    Curious and inventive textures abound, but old fans will still feel warm and fuzzy within the confines of these preternatural songs of innocence –»Someday I Will Live My Life as a Horse”– and experience – “Thailand? (Why Can’t All the World Be).”

    Guest performers include:
    Bain Wolfkind (solo, Nova Homo, Der Blutharsch), Jerome Deppe, Tony Cesa (Destroying Angel, Signls), Albo Sudekum (Apibus), David Talento (Music for Isolation Tanks), Jane Elizabeth (Tesco USA).
    From beyond the grave appears the great American crooner Bing Crosby, in a sampled monologue of unmitigated cruelty.
    The release was mastered by the renowned James Plotkin (Khanate and many others).
    The CD cover is a magnificent painting by American artist Bill Rutherfoord.

    Tracklist:

    1. The One Who Doesn’t Die
    2. War on Despair
    3. Someday I Will Live My Life as a Horse
    4. Vinegar Stew (workstation vers.)
    5. Lillian Awoke
    6. A Prostate in Autumn
    7. BDA 30

    Nearly a quarter-century into a staggering solo career, David E. Williams has decided to join a band. Granted, the David E. Williams Ensemble Experience Project is a band that bears his name, but it still signifies the first time the noir singer-songwriter has collaborated so freely on new songs with other musicians. He wrote these tunes as he normally does – at the piano, in the kitchen, under heavy sorrow – but the final arrangements represent the creative contribution of five people. The result is a David E. Williams release where his trademark absurdity ad profundum is equally matched by organic breadth, pop majesty and catchy subversion. Ltd x 300 copies.
