Ether - Music For Air Raids V 2.0 (2009)

2009-08-19T09:40:00.000-07:00

Ether - Music For Air Raids V 2.0 (2009 ROTORELIEF ROTOR0012)

This is the latest release from Ether...and is well worth the cost of admission!

There is a sample available at the ROTORELIEF site if you're curious. You can also hear Ether here! for those who are unfamiliar with their music.

I highly recommend this album for anyone into looking. Plenty of guitarscapes and sounds. This is one of my latest favorites. It is a vinyl only remix of Ether's 2000 release on Extreme Music, but definitely sounds fresh.

For anyone ever in the Salt Lake City area, I recommend seeing this band live.

Additional Ether is available through 8ctopus Records and through Extreme Music.

TRACK LISTING:

1. Dresden (19.21)

2. Tokyo (18.23)

Highly Recommended! I will not post a download link as this is available for purchase directly from ROTORELIEF!

kqwiet - Arise (A Point Of Reference) (2005 SeaBE REL 070 2005) (320 K)

Another release from the vault. This one was created but due to monetary issues, never got released. The theme of this album revolves around the Iraq war, and avoiding the real hunt... Osama... It's happened and here are my mental audio thoughts on it (ie... several dead for no reason...). This is not a political blog persay but the last 8 years were important for any friends of mine ;) Now, we're down to the ridiculous... (not referring to Obama)... referring to folks on their last leg, you know what I mean. I just have a passion against people being used for falsehoods, and I support the soldiers who are much more willing than I. All the best! Phonhed!
