Mike Pathos

Musician

Artist known from the album People (2005) released on John Zorn's Tzadik label; reviews describe an unconventional cello/violin-based noise/experimental approach and present Pathos as a singular, enigmatic figure.

According to the provided reviews: Mike Pathos released the album People in 2005 on John Zorn's Tzadik label; reviewers describe him as a strong-minded 'madman' who attempted to declare himself dead and was committed for mental illness; his music reduces cello/violin to noisy, ravaged timbres and includes a radical cover titled "Liar" of John Lennon's "Imagine". No subsequent albums are mentioned in the reviews.

Two reviews on DeBaser praise Mike Pathos's sole album People (2005, Tzadik) as an extreme, harrowing work of experimental/noise music. The record reduces cello/violin to a noisy, tortured voice, includes a radical cover of John Lennon’s Imagine titled "Liar," and is described as both beautiful and unsettling.

For:Fans of experimental, noise and avant-garde music; listeners who seek extreme, challenging recordings.

 "People" is an nightmare: it is like entering the head of a madman. There is a way in, but no way out. And if you get out, something in you breaks, self-control is destroyed, it becomes only a word.

 A blow to contemporaneity, the violin is ravished and turned into a diabolic instrument that clings to your guts and pulls out even what you thought you had removed.
