• The Ever Sounding Sea Of Grief by Philippe Blache

    « The ever sounding sea of grief » is a cathartic and spiritually uplifting musical journey. Partly abandonning the lyrical component which was central in previous releases of his musical project «Day Before Us» Philippe Blache introduces here a slight new stylistic turn. This album makes incursions within the world of avant gardism, noise ambient and modern classical minimalism with a subtle cinematic edge. It can be appreciated as a purging ritual mainly built around harrowing reverb piano key, blackened skies of droney textures, then majestic organ patterns within a foreboding sonic spectrum. Those lengthy tracks feature additional arrangements as spoken words. As for the last «Day Before Us» album to date the striking visual imagery is provided by forward-thinking artistic collaborator and multi-talented Natalie Ina. «The ever sounding sea of grief» is a thrilling and colossal poetical/musical drama of overwhelming expressive intensity.

    Lyrics from Anna Kingsford (1848-1888)

    Reeds in the river! reeds in the river!
    O deep in my heart like the reeds in the river,
    My thoughts grow in darkness, far down out of sight,
    And over my life passes shadow and light,
    Like sunshine and cloud on the breast of the stream,
    But I sit by the banks of my river and dream,
    For day after day, they grow silent and strong, ––
    The reeds of my Syrinx, the reeds of my song!
    ____________________________

    Slowly athwart the grey empurpling heavens
    The bearded evening clouds swept slowly by
    With ghostly arms outstretched, and shadowy robes
    Curling around them; one by one they passed
    In sad procession, solemnly and still;
    A crowd of phantoms following to the tomb
    The fair departed Day.
    ______________________________

    All the sweet odours of silence, that rise
    Up from the world to the musical skies,
    And the voice of the waters that swell and sink
    Speaks through the distance, and dimly I think
    Of that fathomless ocean of Time and Fate
    Bearing us onward and on without cess
    Into the dark mysterious Never,
    Spirit to spirit, the small and the great
    Into the Sea of Forgetfulness,
    The sea that rolls and rolls for ever!

    After long years of silence, KRASCHAU is here again with a special collection, released for the 10th anniversary of  the debut album ’Offenbarung’ to give another, maybe a final attack against the post-modern world, which is heading towards a collapse in these troublesome times. To arm KRASCHAU’s music for a new battle, each of the carefully selected tracks has been remastered from the original, raw material by the project’s creator Adam Berces to refresh their sound and to get the most out of the project’s trademark sound. The harsh noise fundaments, distorted spoken word vocals overlaid with bombastic neoclassical melodies and a huge number of obscure historical and other samples reflecting to the project’s fascination for the Old Europe of the ancient merits and true pride and various christian, mystical and conservative movements of the 20th century which kept it’s flame alive.

    Después de largos años de silencio, KRASCHAU está aquí de nuevo con una colección especial, lanzada por el décimo aniversario del álbum debut ‘Offenbarung‘ para dar otro, quizás un último ataque contra el mundo posmoderno, que se dirige hacia un colapso en estos tiempos problemáticos. Para armar la música de KRASCHAU para una nueva batalla, cada una de las pistas han sido cuidadosamente seleccionadas y remasterizadas a partir de la materia prima original por el creador del proyecto, Adam Berces, para actualizar su sonido y aprovechar al máximo el sonido característico del proyecto. Los ásperos fundamentos del ruido, las voces habladas distorsionadas superpuestas con grandilocuentes melodías neoclásicas y una gran cantidad de oscuras muestras históricas y de otro tipo que reflejan la fascinación del proyecto por la Vieja Europa de los méritos antiguos y el verdadero orgullo y varios movimientos cristianos, místicos y conservadores de la siglo XX que mantuvo viva su llama.
