More Info

Wiederveröffentlichung einer schwedischen Compilation-LP von 1989 mit ELD-OMALA (symphonisch-apokalyptische Sounds), WHITE STAINS (experimenteller Ritual-Folk, waren eng mit PSYCHIC TV & TOPY verbandelt), PHAUSS (lebendiger Infinity-Drone / Noise), Z. KARKOWSKI (schon damals kaum zu beschreibender undurchdringlicher Komplex- & Amorph Noise voller innerer Bewegung)
Thema der Compilation war der "Wille zum Leben", das Feiern der Lebenskräfte, eine entsprechend rituelle & kraftvolle Zusammenstellung ist es geworden... ein sehr lohnenswerter Re-Release, neues Cover, Auflage 500 Stück.

"A visionary showcase of Sweden's finest artists, paying tribute to the mighty currents of LIFE within us all. This album was originally released as an LP by TOPYSCAN in Stockholm in 1989, in a limited, hand-numbered edition. Included was a booklet with texts, artwork and photographs by the artists.
The idea, if any, was to invite artists working with sound and experimental music to illustrate the philosophical, emotional concept of the "will to live". Eld-Omala and White Stains were based in Stockholm, Phauss and Karkowski in Gothenburg. One could say that this album presents a pretty correct picture of what was going on musically in Sweden at the time. Digitally remastered by Thomas Tibert in 2006,
the album comes with new cover,first time in digital format." [label info]
