anemone tubeÆs third release of the 'suicide series' tetralogy is an immersive
industrial music album and the most ambitious and complex work yet, a long-term
project of no less than 6 years, pursuing a highly sophisticated approach full
of cross-cultural and historical references. painting a sonic landscape,
'golden temple' is perfectly real and dreamlike at the same time, endorsing
archaic, mythological and worldly ideals alike. beauty and evil, the profane
and chaos, apocalypse and hope - anemone tube keeps account and observes the
antagonist forces of life. after the purely fantastic 'dream landscape'
conjuring up an apocalyptic vision and the dark, brooding landscape of 'death
over china' slowly spreading as thick smog (as a consequence for chinaÆs
uncompromising economical and societal development causing irreparable
environmental harm), the semi-fictional work 'golden temple' is the seriesÆ
logical sequel. it suggests a (meta)physical landscape, here in form of global
cities and metropolises proudly and brightly soaring in darkness, and bestowing
golden radiance and divine beauty. with its alluring metaphorical world of
images, symbols and sounds it is the very symbol of our innermost longings,
desires and fears and our attempts to escape from a disconcerting reality. the
'golden temple' is comforting and threatening at the same time: consoling as it
promises to reveal the secrets of beauty, threatening as it becomes a mirror of
our secret death wish. composed of raw urban field recordings collected in
japan and china, combined with layers of piercing feedback and sinister
hovering synth melodies, 'golden temple' confronts you with an all-embracing
atmosphere of aggrieving darkness and glorious harshness, fathoming the
possibilities of the genre. to ensure due impact, it has been sharply
engineered to perfection by mastermind james. the cd comes with a beautifully
designed 6 panel digifile with golden print on black paper and a lavish 12-page
booklet.
