Nero Kane - For The Love, The Death And The Poetry [CD]

For the Love, the Death and the Poetry is the fourth studio album by songwriter, singer, and guitarist Nero Kane. A folk liturgy that oscillates between yearnings for eternal love, fascination with death, and spectral poetry. Psychomagic mysticism, stripped-down blues, apocalyptic drones, guitar arpeggios, twilight ballads, shamanic rites, solemn organ, and string notes traverse the dark expanses of skeletal American deserts in an extended and obsessive ritual. Echoes of a romantic past evoke the eternal power of art and love in contrast to the ephemeral vanity of existence, in a journey of redemption through the blinding and dark lands of good and evil. Kane's dark folk-tinged vocals and guitars are accompanied by the mellotron and the voice of long-time collaborator and multi-talented artist Samantha Stella, creating a unique and personal style defined as cathartic, desert-like, disturbing, ritualistic, and psychedelic. References to the apocalyptic folk of Michael Gira/Jarboe/Swans, the gospel spirituality of Nick Cave, the perdition of Johnny Cash, the tragic poems of Nico -- evoked in Stella's icy spoken word, as highlighted by critics -- the visionary nature of Jodorowsky and the sick sound of Italian occult psychedelia, the latter being an element that characterizes. Also available on black (SSR 163LP) and white color vinyl (SSR 163LTD). CD_x000D_ 01. As an Angel's Voice _x000D_ 02. My Pain Will Come Back to You _x000D_ 03.
