NEPTUNE (US, SGG records) + POLARIZED

NEPTUNE (US) + POLARIZED NEPTUNE (US) https://www.neptune-band.com/ After twelve years of relative quiet, experimental rock band Neptune returns with Play Some Music, their ninth full length album and a return to form from a project spanning over three decades. Play Some Music reunites the band’s most recognizable and widest travelling line-up of Jason Sidney Sanford, Mark William Pearson, and Daniel Paul Boucher, whose 2008 LP Gong Lake (Table of the Elements) and 2006 LP Patterns (Les Potagers Natures) serve as defining releases among the band’s catalogue of over thirty recordings. Wielding their distinctive homemade instruments – a melding of hardware store and landfill – Play Some Music features microtonal and macrotonal wire-framed steel guitars as well as amplified drums, amplified circular saw blade percussion, electronics, and feedback organ to produce a suite of songs, improvised and composed, that explore classical mythology and the nebulous realm of memory. Always expanding their sound world, Neptune’s signature frenetic guitars and drums are joined by new gamelan-like amplified percussion and phantasmagoric electronic textures hovering over its ether. Neptune “Play Some Music” by Sleeping Giant Glossolalia Released by esteemed outré music label Sleeping Giant Glossolalia, home to artists such as Ramleh, Ava Mendoza, and Multicult, Play Some Music was recorded by Jason LaFarge at Seizure’s Palace Recording (Swans, Sightings, Akron/Family) and mastered by James Plotkin (Sunn O))), Tim Hecker, Pauline Oliveros). Its gatefold artwork features paintings by Sean Micka from his series Book Out Of Stock But Six Pictures, a meditation on the little-known Nazi resistance fighter Mildred Fish Harnack. Though largely active in Boston since its founding in 1994, the band members currently reside in Boulder, CO; Tucson, AZ; and Durham, NC. The band will support with their lengthiest US tour since 2008 with European dates to follow. POLARIZED (The Hague, NL) FFO: Unwound, Blonde Redhead, Jesus lizard), New Album: Subject: Object.
