Murder in the Cathedral -Afraid of -French neo-psych-CD

Murder in the Cathedral

Afraid of

NEW CD

second album that is called ¿Afraid of¿. At this time they happen to meet Alain Lebon, a friend from the early period and founder of the labels Soleil de Gaia and Soleil Zeuhl. Lebon had published several bands playing the musical style Zeuhl, as well as a number of extraordinary albums of French progressive rock. Alain Lebon and Murder in the Cathedral not only share mutual influences, but also a mutual history, which enables them to both appreciate each other and match their mutual expectations. This becomes obvious when listening to the tapes, and the band decides to publish the second album in cooperation with Alain Lebon. It is published in 1999, again with an artistic cover designed by Georges Peccoraro in the tradition of psychedelic art. The cover depicts a gloomy universe, with the orbit of the circulating moons branching out in a strange way.

"Amazingly underrated French neo-psychedelic band. Arisen from the ashes of The Heretic Dreams, Murder in the Cathedral was founded in the beginning of the '90s by brothers Stephane (guitar, keyboards, vocals) and Pascal Moru (bass, keyboards) and drummer Gilles Lepron. Influenced by new groups like Plasticland, Prisoners, and in the tradition of 13th Floor Elevators, Chocolate Watchband or Plastic Cloud, the boys tried to create their own sound. Their first eponymous album (included as a bonus album on this CD), released in 1996, shows a mixture of guitar-oriented neo-psych in the vein of Plastic Cloud, Morgen and Grateful Dead. It consists of 8 titles, instrumental pieces alternating with vocal ones (sung in English). It was very positively received in the neo-psychedelic underground and the limited edition of 500 was sold out within a few months. 2nd album Afraid Of... saw the light of day in 1999. Now the music is much more structured and contains less jam-like passages. According to the reviewers, the crucial sound influences range from The Byrds to Bevis Frond, combining the San Francisco acid sound of the '60s with Oriental sounds. Again the album (limited edition of 500) was sold out within a few months. Although Long Hair is specialized in psychedelic/progressive music of the '60s and early '70s, we would like to present all lovers of psychedelic music this outstanding band. All titles are digitally remastered from original tapes. Booklet comes with extensive personal liner notes by guitar player and singer Stephane Moru including rare and unseen photos."
