The Silverman is keyboardist Phil Knight, a founding and current member
of The Legendary Pink Dots. This is his third solo album following up
on 1995's "Dream Cell" for Terminal Kaleidoscope and 1998's
"Silvermandalas", also for Soleilmoon. Like the latter, this disc is
simply comprised of numbered parts, in this case six interconnected
tracks ranging from two to nearly 13 minutes in length. The title is
perfect as the album was motivated by the death of his father and the
places Knight lived and visited while working upon it. Each setting is
unique and incorporates found as well as synthesized sounds. Part one
features ghostly metallic bell tones amidst a dense, shifting fog. Two
moves into a more electronic territory as a sequence of synth notes,
waves and background bass bumps plays out. Three glistens as a dulcimer
and subdued electronics dance with an elegant array of winter sounds
such as crumpled snow, cracked ice and water. It's really something how
it gracefully slips in and out of consciousness. Four and five are
brief interludes of mechanical whirrings, swooping tones, more bells,
rain (or maybe fire) and birdsong. And six is the requiem itself.
Steady synth voices become masked by wind and the sounds of trains,
evoking cross country movement as well as sorrow. Much like David
Tibet's homage to his departed father, Current 93's "Sleep Has His
House", The Silverman has respectfully paid tribute to his own father
with a very lovely album, his best yet ...
