it wonÆt come for you first...
...itÆll come for what you love.
Slim Westerns Vol II is the long awaited companion to the first
Slim Westerns album, originally released in 1994 on the US
Soleilmoon label. A highly evocative soundtrack to an imaginary
Western, its musical touchstones include Morricone, Badalamenti,
Adamson, Cooder, Calexico and The KLFÆs Chill Out. ItÆll get under
your skin, and you wonÆt want it to leave.
A Small Good ThingÆs slow and steady history is now bookended by
these maps and explorations of the Wild West, shaped by the gauzy
iconography of half-remembered Saturday afternoon TV movies and
reinforced by the lonely literary landscapes of Raymond Carver,
Richard Brautigan, Cormac McCarthy and Flannery OÆConnor. A world
of wandering lost souls, damaged cowboys, bad preachers - thems
what donÆt fit in. Disengaged by sheer distance from the heat of
the desert, ASGTÆs music glides into the cool slipstream of ambient
space, returning frontier America to its source in ghostly form.
Slim Westerns began as a musical score to the mythical adventures
of an outlaw character by the name of Gerry Melody. The 12-page
fake pulp western novel accompanying the CD continues this thematic
thread of GerryÆs unraveling tale.
As well as the regular CD edition of Slim Westerns Vol II, there's
a limited edition of 2,000 double CDs in special packaging
including the first volume of Slim Westerns, which until now has
not been released outside of the US. Furthermore, the very limited
edition vinyl version includes both Slim Westerns albums across 6
sides of vinyl - the first ever Leaf Label triple vinyl
extravaganza! Clad in the beautiful artwork for which Leaf has
become well-known, these special editions are bound to end up as
highly sought after collectorÆs items.
