"Let Me Tell You Why You're Here" C62

This is a strange dark journey, elemental and mystic in nature. 
Borderline songs of; folk, doom, sludge, black metal (without the metal), it's not so easy to describe. All three of the band's full-length releases and run of live shows have held it's core of three members with a rotating line-up of guests including a choir of children on what is easily our creepiest track "Rafka Spirit Rise", a 20-minute sludgy dirge that speaks of things such as murder and greasy swine dancing underneath the moon, insanity. 
It only makes sense considering the spontaneous and chaotic nature of the band to end it with a proper release of the first album. Completely re-mixed and re-mastered, a much bolder experience than the ultra-limited CDR that was originally a true mess of conflictingopinions that rubbed off on the sound.
The seemingly pretentious album title is derived from an auditory perception of the final track before it was named. The track actually has no words, just syllables and pronunciations.
Mystery Pill is/was: Christopher Crash: guitars/vox/electronics (a solo acoustic artist and expert DAW operator when I met him), Tony Wyioming: drums/percussion (best known as the former drummer of Minsk), and myself RIP Wynn on guitars/electronics, mostly bass guitar and sound-design (Infirmary, Enemata Prods).
Hopefully the three albums that we produced will make it to vinyl and real glass-mastered CD in the future.

Mystery Pill
"Crystal Mirrors and Powdered Glass" 
C62
$5
Add to Cart
Third full-length from the band, here we have a set of songs that range from instrumental black-western rock, to dirty garage industrial, Hawkwind-esque psychedelic freak-outs, and melancholic experimental compositions. An eclectic offering of songs that does not disappoint. A voyage into altered states of mind and dark chemistry that spews strange words of wisdom and a multitude of sounds.

"Dance The Ghost" C62

When the frail chemistry of such a trio combines into a solid form of aesthetic opposites, melancholic droned out ghost-rock stares blinded through eyes born of stone into a blood-filled glass once full of merlot. In vivid opium dreams, the drawn-out chant vocals are embraced by soulful backups that help transpose the night. Held down by detailed Eastern percussion and thick, repetitive bass, this is a doomed-out journey with a unique aura and smooth smooth vocals.
