Sadness And Life
A weird and wonderful mix of spoken word,strange eerie sounds, avant rock and modern composition. It's such an eclectic mixture of theatrical ramblings and verse that it turns into a strange aural journey with each disparate section weaving into the next. Its getting a 'pretentious' suggestion from elements of the office and the band do admit its 'open to ridicule' but let's keep our judgmental hats in the drawer and appreciate this for all its innovation and bravery
Demons!
"Desire is exploitation," the label notes for this ambitious two disc set proclaims. The demons get in any way they can, through laws that repress or through indulgence that never seems like it will ever be enough. "Demons!" explores the dread that accompanies our facing our own capacity for evil, as individuals and as a culture. Once again, Stephen Moore and Walter Cardew use orchestral and cabaret motifs to propel their horrific tales of sin and revenge. And where better to probe the personal …
Jung Ahh Fleisch
A new, uncompromising CD by Walter & Sabrina has been released end of July 2008. The Dietrich Eichmann Ensemble can be heard in two pieces. The CD ends with a live track from the Berlin concert on 16 May 2008. Thus, Jung Ahh Fleisch forms a transition between Walter & Sabrina’s We Sing for the Future and the new double CD demons!, with the Berlin studio recordings, which is the next upcoming release.
Danny Dark Records Taster
This taster is being released to mark the launch of Danny Dark Records and contains a special version of Kats Jenkins as well as two videos accompanying songs from Chioma SuperNormal The Dark Album which are not available anywhere else.
Rock \'n\' Roll Darkness
Hot on the heels of the recent triple CD Chioma SuperNormal, the hardest working man of the moment Walter Cardew (son of avant-garde composer Cornelius) offers another set, a three-song and one movie piece entitled Rock 'n' Roll Darkness. And much like his previous output this is just about the strangest piece of music you are likely to hear. Stripped down and with severely avant-garde tendencies, the pieces - part spoken word, part singalong and mostly built around flutes, clarinets and the lik…
We Sing For The Future
Like a chorus of eunuchs standing over you on your deathbed sending you off to hell with jews harp and squalid tunes from children?s plays?or like outtakes from a Diamanda Galas Mass, in which the choir tries to have fun with the libretto to keep from killing themselves-- Walter & Sabrina makes us fear them and fear for ourselves on ?We Sing For the Future.? The title track is a cover of the Cornelius Cardew piece (CC being Walter?s father and huge influence) which sets the stage for a whimsical…
Chioma SuperNormal. The Dark Album
This Opus Magnus, its unrelenting poetry, its lucidly structured composition, its incredibly elaborate arrangements, cannot be grasped with terms like Rock Opera, Musical Play, Oratorio, or Horror Show. Doubtlessly, all of this is part of it somehow, but all goes far beyond the outrageously unheard!
Sadness & Life
An older great release performing the never ending circle of life and death, made of narrative passages combined with weird rock elements and detailed textures of modern composition. Recorded 1996.
Chioma Sings Tales Of Danny Dark
A vibrant mixture of avant-rock, modern composition, jazz and experimental electronica, this mysterious album has been circulating for a while now and deserves to be heard.Put together by Walter and Horace Cardew (sons of Cornelius), and featuring the instrumental input of various ex-Loose Tubes and Billy Jenkins alumni, it interleaves electronic textures, treated vocals and thorny, angular composition that is strongly remininiscent of Art Bears around the time of Hopes And Fears.The album also …
Walter & Sabrina Play Pop; Walter & Sabrina Play Classical
Like a chorus of eunuchs standing over you on your deathbed sending you off to hell with jews harp and squalid tunes from children’s plays—or like outtakes from a Diamanda Galas Mass, in which the choir tries to have fun with the libretto to keep from killing themselves-- Walter & Sabrina makes us fear them and fear for ourselves on “We Sing For the Future.” The title track is a cover of the Cornelius Cardew piece (CC being Walter’s father and huge influence) which sets the stage for a whimsical…
