Altar of Flies: A Lifetime
The first CD begins with a voice saying: "In the history of mankind, has there ever been a more obvious truth than the statement: We are all going to die?”
This sets the theme, but the continuation is much warmer and friendlier than you might be led to expect.
Not surprisingly, this double CD is one of the best and most interesting releases of last year.
A triple LP of some very, very fine Altar of Flies material.
- Inblick
- Överblick
- Återblick
Sometimes rather noisy, almost like his rougher Barstool Mountain project.

Damn, I love the Swedish low-fi, low-key... noise you can listen to late at night, without disturbing the neighbors... scene. Sometimes called rural noise? Of course, it's not one thing, but a common theme seems to be tape loops, found, "organic" sounds etc. Artists like Ochu, Amph, Altar of Flies, Arv & Miljö, Nærværet (which is half Norwegian).
Of course, this exists not only in Sweden, but I've been discovering a lot from there lately.
