||/// MYTHS \\\||

Since the premiere of our electronic opera, The Golden Dawn, sold out, and since we are merciless perfectionists who cannot be stopped, we are taking SFU Woodwards school of Contemporary Art up on their lovely offer to stage The Golden Dawn once more for a 2-night run.

Since we have more time to obsess over detail, and because this will be set in a theatre with actual theatre seating, it will be somewhat different than the premiere. But it will still be a somewhat psychotic hyper-saga of our debut album set to our own imagined mythologies. It will still feature our beautiful dancers and lovely actresses, many costumes and probably even more props, and multi-screen visuals.

The Golden Dawn will play again on June 22nd and 23rd at the SFU Woodwards building in Studio D.

From the premiere performance, here is ‘Do You Experience?’, a Veda Hille cover:

Does anyone visit MySpace anymore? Is it a dry gust of air blowing over a desolate plain? Is it a rattle of bones in the basement? I don’t know.

We talked with Scott from the Interview Show last week about some of our songs, our inspirations and wearing bloody fur. It’s up on Winnie Cooper now….

The Interview Show on Winnie Cooper

We’re insanely excited about this.

“Building from their live show that includes elaborate and handmade costumes, visuals and lighting, they have transformed their live set into an “electronic opera”, The Golden Dawn. Pulling from far-reaching influences such as ballet and improvised dance, our obsession with the unknown, and the cycles of ancient mythology, The Golden Dawn weaves a story through their extended and remixed set of songs, noise improvisations and distorted narratives.”

This will be a special one-of-a-kind show that will play like a theatre piece. We’ll have dancers, many new costumes, new visuals, all set to narrative and noise.
If you heard us talking about our “pop opera”, this is it.

We’ll be playing at the SFU Woodwards building in the World Art Centre on Saturday, January 28th.

MEGAPENG!

Their dense pulses of vocal quanta wrap a quantized drum militia into piercing sinusoids of vibronic hollarama. The resulting hysteria will churn through crinked necks as fiending grippers clutch the delicately packaged disc within the myst of their hypnotic dance.

The album is alive online!

We’ll post updates shortly on how to buy an actual, physical, hand-numbered copy.
