Resonant Hole Single Series Volume Two: The Appearants / Betweensday



The Appearants/Betweensday Resonant Hole Single Series, Volume Two

Pro cassette, edition of 50.


"This time we present a pairing of melodists inspired by that young and turbulent branch of inquiry into the marrow of emotional time. Betweensday does not betray its namesake, those recently discovered haunted 'sharps and flats' of the week. So swollen are these lays with melancholy, you’ll give thanks that these days unfold more often than not while you are unconscious. The Appearants derive their name from the harbingers of the Between, those elusive garden-varmints of the mind, plundering your psychic tuber-patch from beneath, the soil disgraced with expectant holes, so you’ll not know why you’re sad, but you’ll not feel any better, either. As such investigations go, these vectors may prove too obscure for the fresh initiate, but the by-product—a dancing fountain of romantic treacle, all harp glissandos and fading heart monitors, Chopin, modal balladry, and Days of Our Lives—will, by design, crush all but the most sensible hearts to dust." --Jeanne Vomit-Terror
