This time the proposal for the #zot2016 review is truly unique.
Eternal Tapestry - Sleeping On A Dandelion (Sky Lantern Records)
This album, divided into two long tracks, is essentially one very long jam session lasting half an hour, recorded live at the Mississippi Studios in Portland, Oregon on April 28, 2014, and released by Sky Lantern Records just last year under the title 'Sleeping On A Dandelion,' which clearly references a line from the first Pink Floyd album. Knowing Eternal Tapestry, we can expect anything, and indeed our heroes deliver nearly everything, creating, in half an hour, real sonic ramparts of drone sound based on an imposing bass line and the wah of the guitars, with the use of saxophone placing the two compositions somewhere between no-wave and kraut-rock, evoking bands from the past like Can or Amon Duul II, as well as contemporary acts like the more psychedelic Kikagaku Moyo. The use of vocals in the first track is particularly striking, being practically a long, chilling wail from the beginning to the end of the song. It's something even Damo Suzuki couldn't pull off. As far as I'm concerned: unmissable. 5/5
