Haeretici 7o74, my and Ovro‘s band, will perform live this week in Helsinki, Finland on Thursday and Riga, Latvia on Saturday. For these gigs we decided to release the recording of our previous gig (at Syntesia, Tampere, Finland in January). It bears the title Haeretici, Schismatici, Excommunicati and will be available at these gigs, and [...]

The band’s first release, a live-EP that contains the recording of the group’s performance at club Syntesia in Tampere, Finland in January 2006. Here, deep dark ambient soundscapes meet creeping rhythms and ecstatic oriental vibes. This is musical heresy, where the alchemical potential of not playing by the rules or expectations comes abloom. Purists, clinging on to their cherished dogmas in the dust of their crumbling temples, will be itching to burn these heretics alive.

Escape from Heaven is a Manifesto of Liberation, a statement of personal independence from all authorities and the attainment of freedom over one’s destiny, and all that it implies. The music is a hermetic fusion of diverse sample material varying from traditional music from India, Middle East and Western Africa to 80′s thrash metal, flavoured with a selection of field recordings, all welded in alchemical furnace of post-industrial electronica.

Tower of Silence was an exclusive bonus CDr included with pre-orders of Niko Skorpio’s Escape from Heaven, May 2006. The disc came in hand-painted sleeve. Digital reissue 2008, presented with new artwork and extended liner notes.
