about

The unique voice in rock that is CORDE OBLIQUE is already well primed by the time of this mature second effort. Riccardo Prencipe, skilled composer and guitarist, surrounds himself with fully engaged hired singers and musicians for this entrancing blend of classical, medieval/mediterranean folk, and rock. It's worth having a look at the numerous you tube clips of this "group" to gain insight into the synergy which upon which he insists and depends.

Hiss Spun
by CHELSEA WOLFE

supported by 4 fans who also own “Volontà d'arte (special edition)”

This album gurns and churns with the dense, atmospheric power of an angel wrestling the forces of hell. Wolfe's voice is an ethereal swirl, but it can cut like a blade. Her guitar, meanwhile, is a reaper's scythe, and with it, she flails like a Balrog summoned deep and raging from the bowels of Middle Earth. It's an album of dreams and nightmares, a sludge-gaze torrent of painful questions hurled into the void. A brave, bold and empowering listen. Michael Mueller
