The Bog
THE BOG is the 2nd full-length release from Slomo, honing down the ritual clatter of their first album, THE CREEP (2005), into a more cumbersome and laden affair, ever heading downwards into the Northern Underworld upon slurries of unsignposted mung.
Core duo Holy McGrail & Howard Marsden once again create a lumpy bed of bass-heavy synthesizer and guitar drones while Arch-drude Julian Cope provides a coda to proceedings with the recital of his poem Land, especially written for this album.
The Creep
Following a sell-out edition on Julian Cope's FUCK OFF & DI label, THE CREEP has been re-issued by IMPORTANT RECORDS in a deluxe gatefold sleeve (CD, cat # IMPREC085).
“…seeps into your subconscious, where it flutters like a trapped and burning moth at the back of your brain. Ghostly sounding and ominously rumbling with atmospheric threat, The Creep is an undeniably effective chunk of subterranean echo, whose quaking aftershock could cause sleepless nights.”
