Calling all Space Brothers! The new disc from High Mountain Tempel is here. “Pacific Sky Burial” (Axaxaxas mlo) touches down this February. This California Duo consists of Eric Nielsen (of both Maquiladora and Buzz or Howl) and Keith Boyd. This is their first flight into the ether together. Eric has played with members of such highly respected avant garde players from groups like Acid Mothers Temple, High Rise, Tennis Coats, White Heaven, Mainliner, Mus, The Black Heart Procession, etc. On “Pacific Sky Burial” they aim their sound towards both inner and outer space.

Creating dense soundscapes and sonic stories, their music touches on elements of Krautrock and such musicians as Lustmord, Harry Partch, Coil and Zombi. Along with these spacier elements, there is a free-form and hybrid spirituality to this music that is of a particular West Coast and Pacific variety.

The overall effect results in the kind of music Eno would make for a Philip K. Dick film set in Tibet. This limited edition disc is a labor of love and comes in a silk-screened cover with unique black on black discs. So, let the count down begin. Set the controls for the heart of the sun and journey to the limitless dimensions of inner space with High Mountain Tempel and their debut release, “Pacific Sky Burial”.
