DOME (BRUCE GILBERT & GRAHAM LEWIS) - Dome 2

Format: LP Label & Cat.Number: Editions Mego - DOME 2 Release Year: 2024 Note: the second album from the experimental project of WIRE-members BRUCE GILBERT and GRAHAM LEWIS (released originally 1980), less "industrial" than Dome 1 maybe and more song oriented into direction WIRE, but an adventurous journey, too.. - "This is an extremely well put together and sequenced album opening with the icy beauty of "The Red Tent I" and ending when the crunching "Keep It" is slowly buried under a cacophony of jarring tape loops." [Mauriny] Price (incl. 19% VAT): €22.50 More Info With the demise of the group Wire in 1980, founder members Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis joined forces to create Dome. With the assistance of engineer Eric Radcliffe and his Blackwing Studio Dome took the ethic of »using the studio as a compositional tool« and recorded and released three Dome albums on their own label in the space of 12 months: »Dome« (July 1980), »Dome 2« (October 1980) and »Dome 3« (October 1981). A final fourth album, »Will You Speak this World: Dome 4« was released on the Norwegian Uniton label in May 1983. These albums represent some of the most beautifuly stark and above all timeless exercises in studio experimentation from early 1980s alternative music scene. https://editionsmego.bandcamp.com/album/2
