The Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid

Ambient Drone Classic Must hear ??

06.02.2018

Falls ihr mal zwei Stunden nichts tun oder Nachdenken wollt: Diese Musik ist der richtige Begleiter. Hat schon fast zwei Dekaden auf dem Buckel, gibts auf Bandcamp aber gerade als 3er Vinyl Repress.

Frönen wir also weiter den Klängen vergangener Utopien! ?

The Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid is the sixth studio LP by ambient drone music group Stars of the Lid. It was released in late 2001 on the Kranky label, on two CDs and three LPs. The album features long minimal, droning compositions created from heavily treated guitar, horn, flute, piano, and other classical instruments. An interesting feature of the second track, „Requiem For Dying Mothers, part 2“ is that it features a sample from the final scene of Andrei Tarkovsky’s film Stalker, where the character Monkey pushes a glass across a table by way of telekinesis as a dog whines and a train whistle blows in the distance.
