At
last: Re-Release of the
loooong sold out
and highly sought-after third album of PERSEPHONE! With their third album Sonja Kraushofer (L'AME IMMORTELLE),
Matt Howden (SIEBEN, ex-SOL INVICTUS) and Martin Höfert (SOPOR AETERNUS,
ex-JANUS) build further onto the blueprint of elegiac songs and sparkling soundscapes of
"Atma Gyan", their acclaimed second album. The three
musicians gracefully move from rhythmically oriented songs with strong world music
leanings to melodically rich, dark neo-classical pieces; at times they fuse these diverse
musical influences, and occasionally they rely on Sonja's voices as the
sole instrument. "Mera Sangeet Kho Gaya" offers a perfect balance between
a variety of instruments and harmonious voices, delicately produced by John A.
Rivers (DEAD CAN DANCE). As ever, PERSEPHONE's raison d'etre is one
of melancholy and loss with all songs being yearning, bittersweet, deserted and
desolate. The elaborate packaging to accompany the release is a piece of art in
itself, presented as a fold out 12 panel crucifix with deeply atmospheric
landscape photos and including all lyrics. Again the artwork has been completely created
by JOACHIM LUETKE. "Mera Sangeet Kho Gaya" delivers a darkly delicious piece of
work that is highly recommended to all lovers of heavenly
voices and dark folk. Released on Trisol and available March 30th,
2010.
