After the very successful Monocyte comic and accompanying CD soundtrack, menton3 AKA Saltillo delivers a superb vinyl edition, Monocyte: The Lapis Coil. The vinyl is a new take on the Monocyte story, twisting the original versions with remixes, remastering, and a stunning new track, Necromancy. The collection is presented with gripping artwork by menton3, a self-portrait that looks deeply into the dark soul of one of America's finest contemporary artists.'Monocyte' is Album of the Month (May) in RITUAL Italy and got extremely positive reviews everywhere:
If Mozart took some acid ...
If Mozart took some acid and locked himself in the studio with The Glitch Mob, the resulting music would probably sound a lot like 'Monocyte'. Jessie Wood, SlugMagMakes Portishead's Third look like Beethoven's 2nd. Alan Ranta, Exclaim!It takes a certain creative mind to marry such different musical sounds and twist them into something so rhythmic and gorgeous. Head Full of NoiseAbnormally good. Joern Karstedt, Sonic SeducerSaltillo; the music they create invokes feelings of trooping down the carnal remains of the beast whilst guarded by an angelic maestro. 28 Days Later AnalysisWhat you have here is an album that could be best described as E.S. Posthumus meets Nine Inch Nails. Jonny B., Bloody Disgusting
