Secular Works, Vol. 2
by Extra Life

Brilliant union of early music and rock. Strong Cardiacs vibes. I find a lot of chamber rock to be meandering and aimlessly angular. However this stuff is different, the compositions are extremely tight and diverse. The instrumentation is sparse and rickety, but has these brilliant flashes of grandiose orchestration, it's very balanced. I don't think I've heard a more successful integration of early music into modern forms before. Absolutely a modern masterpiece of progressive "weird" music.

Just a nearly perfect album. The one thing I wish is that it had the extended mixes of the songs from the LP version - but even without, it's one of the best 'rock' albums I've ever heard.

Marvelous experimental music from this Tel Aviv musician that fuses outré noise with almost folk-like arrangements.
