| DESCRIPTION |
|  | VALINA Epode Label : 54°40'orFight! Year : 2006 Format : CD 3in Style : Folk / Experimental Availability : Out of stock
| | | | | Description : | On 'Epode' Valina expands their repertoire to include acoustic guitar and contrabass and a composition for solo controbass ('Epilogue', cd-only). Impressive is that while incorporating these instruments into their music, they?re not merely flourishes; '81 Men Without Memory' is as far removed from Valina?s wiry sound than anything they?ve ever recorded. Yet it?s as distinctly Valina as the Eastern-Europe-meets-Chicago turbulence 'Escort Of Soda' (originally appeared on a split 7' with Minneapolis Sicbay), or the rolling drift and stab of 'Eriny', or the angular urgent opening salvo of 'Entel Echo'. Epode is a term from the Greek tragedy and stands for the piece between verse and counter-verse and for an 'interlude'. It?s used as a methapher for this release between 'Vagabond' and the planned new full-length in 2006.
