When Spotted They Are Killed On Sight & Hung Up So That The Evil Spirit Will Be Carried Away By Travelers - (7:35) 120 BPM
Review: It's been three long years since Dominick Fernow last donned the Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement alias. Here he resurrects the project for another trip into mind-altering ambient territory. In typical Fernow fashion, the album's nine tracks flit between foreboding creepiness, macabre darkness, droning mysticism, paranoid percussive hypnotism, and moments of intense, sun-bright beauty. It's a mixture that's fully in keeping with Fernow's previous work, although Green Graves does feature longer, more immersive tracks than many of his other projects. It's perhaps this aspect, as much as the undoubted quality of the music, which makes it an essential purchase.
Review: Hospital Productions is a non-stop operation and following this year's long-players from Alessandro Cortini, Ninos Du Brasil and Ron Morelli, Vatican Shadow's latest swoop is this ambient album produced with Function. The seven-track LP was recorded between Berlin and New York, and it's described as best suited for after-hours home listening, but whether you really want to listen to this after a big night is up to you. Indeed "A Year Has Passed" and "A Year Has Gone By" are downbeat and melancholic, whereas other tracks lean more towards industrial ambient, similar to fellow Hospital artist Lussuria's work. "The Nemesis Flower" is a darker highlight while "Red Opium" and "Bejewelled Body" is where the house and techno beats lie.
