LOVECRAFT would be proud

Almost everyday in the news there are stories about how a group of scientists after so many decades of painstaking research and work create a new drug or make new discoveries, but how many times does one read about a group of musicians that have done the same thing?

A trio of experimental and improvisational musicians called the Tri-Cornered Tent Show has done just that. It has taken them the last part of the last century (25 years to be exact) of dedicated practice, research, and patience that brings them to announce the release of "Maze Above the Abyss", "Tri-Cornered Tent Show", and "Beneath the Mountains of Madness" all encased in 3 compact discs.

The musical journey began with initial tracks being recorded using the ancient anti-deluvian technology of electronics from the 70's. Though methodical deciphering of the Lovcraft short story "The music of Eric Zann", other related stories expanded upon Lovecraft's Greater Cthulu Mythos they began recording free improvisation and orchestrated sound sculpture over those 25 years to create the projects now available on the new bay area label Edgetone Records. http://www.edgetonerecords.com

Now, they come out from their exile held up in a well-insulated dank little studio in the depths of Richmond California. By the shear force of will and their dedication to the world of improvisation, they have a unique set of music to merit them worthy of attention. In a world of pop can music they could teach a class in patience and creation.

OUTLAND X Plays the LOVECRAFTIAN MYTHOS SUITE featuring: Bill Noertker, bass Dave Mihaly, drums Rent Romus, saxes Scott Looney, piano & G4

Romus has created suites of musical adventures embodying inspiration from Phil K. Dick, Frank Herbert, and Edgar Allan Poe. His most recent foray into the realm of fantasy draws Romus and the Outland crew towards the dessert sands like texts of H.P. Lovecraft. From the short stories of Lovecraftian horror and fantasy come new sonic adventures in the Lovecraftian Mythos Suite.
