OV PAIN - Free Time LP
Limited edition of 110 copies.
Highly recommended.
We've been long time fans of Kiwi duo Ov Pain. Many followers grabbed their awesome self-titled LP on CocoMuse from us about 8 years ago.
Near 11-minute opener "Fascia" is quite the meditative drone piece, we found ourselves floating away before the beauty of "Kikorangi" engulfed us.
From the band:
"A couple of weeks after all this we both spontaneously remembered an interview with Heather Leigh in which she termed her process something like ‘improvised songwriting’. To some extent, I guess, this album represents an attempt at improvised songs. How easy or uneasy this work sits alongside our other stuff is of little importance to us (note 1 – improvising in low rent studios has been a feature of our lives for a while now; note 2 – we change our method often).
One thing that is important to us is the immediacy and economy with which it was made and how that immediacy and economy becomes the thing itself."
