- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Hailing from the Midwest, LAFCADIO is like an onslaught out of nowhere.
Historically, we see that the most violent and revolutionary groups come out
of the shittiest geographical regions. From Genghis Khans golden horde
sweeping down from the barren plains, to the Israelite Host marching up out
of the desert; its obvious that the most fucked-up people come from the most
fucked-up places.
So: LAFCADIO's lead-singer was born with Tourettes Syndrome. The reason we
bring this up in the band bio? We think its an important clue to the bands
philosophy and their sound. It seems to be poetically apropos to LAFCADIO's
jaunty aesthetic. An analogy might be sketched between the convulsions of
savagery and delirium which punctuate the otherwise elegantly constructed
progressions of LAFCADIO's songs and the disruptive jangling and cognitive
interference which is woven into the singers neuro-chemical make-up.
LAFCADIO is a band growing out of metal's deep-rooted traditions of darkness,
noise, and riffage, but theyre always somewhere on the outer edge of ritual
and convention; pointing towards new territories, and penetrating the
internal anarchy that's fuelled the metal movement since its moment of
genesis. They deliver their songs with a brutal elegance, but don't shy away
from manic absurdity and the clownish aspect of doom.
