UNSEEN FORCES 009: EVIL DEAD


EVIL DEAD
Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
DLP

UNSEEN FORCES is proud to present the complete motion picture soundtrack from Fede Alvarez’s incendiary 2013 reimagining of cult horror masterpiece the EVIL DEAD. Spanish composer Roque Baños dazzles with a crisp modern orchestral score that bows reverently toward such genre classics as Jerry Goldsmith’s The Omen Suite, Anton Webern and Krzysztof Penderecki’s creepy string movements from The Exorcist and Joseph LoDuca’s beautifully understated atmospherics for Sam Raimi’s original creation that launched the grisly Kandarian franchise and revolutionized the contemporary horror film with its startling velocity. Anxious purists need not fret. Baños studied music at the Upper Music Conservatory of Murcia and Madrid’s Real Conservatorio Superior before graduating from Boston’s prestigious Berklee College of Music, but with EVIL DEAD he steps beyond the jazz influences evidenced in his previous repertoire. Here the maestro eloquently assumes the role of firestarter, conducting like a pyromaniac invoking the destructive majesty of flame- both demonic and cleansing- with smoldering strings and brass building toward total aural incineration. To that end, he cleverly employs a prominent siren motif that at turns suggests a dreadful fire alarm in slow motion, the nostalgia of an amusement park haunted house attraction and a prodigious yawning door somewhere in the deepest chasm of hell. A thoroughly cinematic experience suffused with sweeping overtures and jarring choral crescendos, Baños has created a dark and vital epic for the ages. DLP pressed to 140gm gore splattered vinyl - with a locked groove for extended terror! - and entombed in a lavish gatefold cover, this gorgeous collection carves through the glut of overblown soundtrack reissues of late like a trusty chainsaw. It is, in a word...“Groovy!”

UNSEEN FORCES 008: DEATHCHARGE


DEATHCHARGE
Bad Dream Forever
LP
SOLD OUT!

A golden dawnrazor for the new dark age! DEATHCHARGE returns with their second 12” masterpiece for UNSEEN FORCES. Eschewing both redundancy and the predictable pitfalls of false progression, A. Void and the funeral horde push through to strange new frontiers. Gone is the d-beat worship of their earliest incarnations as a bleak melodic dirge emerges from the rubble of the micro/macro apocalypse. Slice wide the curtain of night and watch the entrails of a bad dream spill out…forever. Deathrock is dead! Long live DEATHCHARGE!

UNSEEN FORCES 007: DANAVA


DANAVA
Heavy Devil Star-Crash: 
The 2004 Demos
12" EP
SOLD OUT!

There are many paths to the jeweled gates of liberation: possession, ecstasy, sacrilege, heresy. Paradox subjugates ego in the transcendent thrust toward the eternally expansive. The star studded spacecraft known as DANAVA, dispatched as it was from America's rainy northwest coast, emerged on the midnight horizon with this obscure 4 song masterpiece as a shining symbol of freedom in sound. Critics have done their best to identify this flying object with all manner of convenient but ultimately meaningless qualifiers and all have missed the mark. This is not "stoner rock", even if the pilots are probably stoned. This is not "progressive rock", for the boundless soul thwarts gentrification. This is not "space rock", although their heads are full of meteor dust their boots still waltz in the gutters of Whitechapel sin. This is not "retro rock", because tomorrow calls even as the third eye glances in reverse to hail electric ancestry. Armed to the teeth with Orgone amplification and mesmeric Luciferian aether, the technicolor demon people have risen from primordial depths to dispel all curses and sever all bonds. UNSEEN FORCES proudly presents the earliest DANAVA recordings, originally released in 2004 as a limited  hand-colored CD-R demo, remastered by Timothy Stollenwerk and pressed to virgin vinyl in all its raw splendor.   Shake your ass and bang your head. Let's get real free!
