Label: Ipecac
TRT: 58:23
This band kept popping up on my radar, and after one particularly avid fan beseeched me to bump them up in my queue, I obliged.
This is the definition of "mood" music. Dark, slow paced, schmaltzy and ominous, Bohren & der Club of Gore took jazz and made it what they wanted it to be, not what it was "supposed" to be. It really blows my mind how much I enjoy this, as jazz has never really been very agreeable to my sensibilities. The best thing is, apparently their early catalog is even better than this one.
I highly recommend putting this on while you read a good book, it sets an absolutely spectacular atmosphere.
