jolines, Arvo Pärt + Trent Reznor, casi me da miedo bajarlo, a ver que tal, gracias por la recomendación.
Edito porque la cita tiene tela, Arvo Pärt tan religioso, Reznor tan maligno, el señor Frost debe ser una especie de limbo.

Emeralds-Emeralds-2009
320
What we play is what is coming out of the three of us at that particular time, and can't really be created twice the same way," writes Elliott. McGuire agrees, explaining that the band "may briefly talk about the general feeling we might want to convey before we play, but that's it." Forgoing multi-tracking or overdubs, Emeralds focus on the music more than the process, but there's a goal in mind. "The only thing I think we generally go for is full catharsis," Elliott writes, "however the music gets us there."
Cynics may scoff, but there's something refreshing about the ardor with which Emeralds talk of their work. The trio sounds genuinely excited about immersing themselves, without a hint of irony or self-degradation. "We're really trying to put everything we have into our music," writes McGuire. "Nothing else feels right. Everything else becomes a distraction."
Their welcome into the ranks has been a positive one. "A lot of the people that are putting our records out are the people we're the most inspired by, so in a way, we really feel like we have to work hard to be a part of that," relates Elliott. "I would say that we have had very good resources early on and we are grateful for that." The band's discography is rife with releases on Cleveland-based labels, but has become increasingly peppered with the names of some of noisedom's most esteemed imprints. Having already issued cassettes and CD-Rs on American Tapes, Gods of Tundra, Chondritic Sound, and Fag Tapes, Emeralds are soon to join the rosters of Ecstatic Peace, No Fun and Hanson Records.
Cleveland has never been a hotbed for noise music; while an underground has existed there for some time, it seems rarely that the city's artists rise to national recognition. With Emeralds, though, perhaps the situation is beginning to change. "Every kid hates their hometown obnoxiously," writes Elliott in his defense of Emeralds' origins. "There are people that live here that try to deny the talent that’s thriving." McGuire is equally effusive, saying "There are lots of great bands in Cleveland, and I feel so lucky to know them all." The trio’s hometown pride is present even in their name, which was inspired by the "Emerald Necklace," a string of parks that surrounds the region.
Emeralds creation of haunting, beautiful sound is one departure from noise music's perceived M.O., but their mindset toward their work provides an even more striking argument against the misconception of noisemakers as nihilistic pessimists. The band's youthful enthusiasm is immediately tangible when they talk about their music, and there's a sense of dedication that has likely played a large part in their success thus far. A statement like "I feel like our music comes from a desire we all share to create something meaningful," might seem a platitude from the mouth of another, but when McGuire follows it up by saying that, in Emeralds, "I find myself feeling like I did when I was a little kid dreaming of spending my life playing music," one can sense a candor and earnestness not colored by a desire to say the right thing. Elliott is no less positive, framing Emeralds' achievements thus far as opportunities for growth. "It really just inspires me to explore as much music as I can," he writes. "It really makes me want to deliver the records that are good enough for that kind of exposure and treatment."
Ambience will still likely be a large part of Emeralds' music, but it sounds as though the band that Elliott called "more careful than subtle," and whose earliest efforts were marked by "simple displays of control" could be taking their music to the proverbial next level. "What we play now is something we could have never seen when we first started," writes McGuire. "We don’t know what things will be like in a year, or five years…just excited to see where things will lead."http://rapidshare.com/files/278068882/Emeralds_LP.rar -

Aún que los temas ya están en otros discos de Woods/Woods family creeps, vale la pena escuchar este registro.
Acoustic Family Creeps - Play Live in the Woods one-sided 12"
Woods material recorded for Radio Dijon in France in April 2009. This is just a great sounding record with a depth and emotional gravity that even beats their ‘official’ releases.

Willard Grant Conspiracy: Paper Covers Stone 2009.
When a band starts reworking old material on album, it usually reveals a waning in creativity. The Willard Grant Conspiracy has, however, always been an unusual act. ‘Paper Covers Stone’, their eighth studio album, which is predominantly a collection of old songs in new arrangements, far from having a sparseness of fresh ideas, in contrast shows a whole abundance of them.
Based around baritone-voiced singer and only permanent member Robert Fisher, the Willard Grant Conspiracy has constantly reinvented itself during their nearly fifteen years of recording. The role-call of the rest of the group has stretched to dozens of members across America and Europe, depending on who is available for each recording. Stage shows have had similarly constantly evolving line-ups, featuring anything from one to fourteen participants.
A teasing statement -“If someone tells you played on this, they probably did”- that appeared usually instead of credit listings on the band’s first three albums, ‘3 am at Sunday @ Fortune Otto’s’ (1996), ‘Flying Low’ (1998) and ‘Mojave’ (1999,) still a decade on contains a lot of truth to it. Against such a backdrop, it is perhaps surprising that Robert Fisher has chosen to wait until now to do this album, rather than making it years ago.
For ’Paper Covers Stone’, which was recorded in a mammoth two day recording session in Vermont, Fisher has assembled some of his first collaborators in the band. Sean O’Brien was the original guitarist in the Willard Grant Conspiracy, but has not appeared on a record since ‘Mojave’. Pete Weiss, who produced this album, also produced each record up to and including the band’s fourth album, ‘Everything’s Fine’ (2000). Viola and saw player David Michael Curry is after Fisher the Willard Grant Conspiracy’s most constant member, playing on every album since ‘Flying Low’. As Curry has remained in Boston where the group was formed while Fisher returned a few years ago to his native California, his appearances have, however, become increasingly fleeting. Only former Dream Syndicate front man and guitarist Steve Wynn, who has toured on and off with the project since 2002, is a more recent addition to the band.
What is immediately striking about ‘Paper Covers Stone’, given its personnel, is that rather than focus on the group’s early songs, Fisher and his cohorts have gravitated towards its latter recordings. There are no songs from ‘3 am’ and ‘Mojave’ and only one from ‘Flying Low’. There are instead three songs from the Willard Grant Conspiracy’s fifth album, 'Regard the End’(2003), four from its sixth album, ‘Let It Roll’ (2006) and two from the group’s seventh and last album, last year’s ‘Pilgrim Road'.(A forthcoming tour only EP, ‘Trunk in the Attack’, which was also recorded at the same time, features three songs from ‘Everything’s Fine’ and an additional one each from ‘Regard the End’ and ‘Let It Roll’).
While in recent years the Willard Grant Conspiracy’s sound on record has been epic, whether on the sublime traditional folk of ‘Regard the End’, the storming psychedelia and punk rock of ‘Let It Roll’ or the orchestral ‘Pilgrim Road’, ‘Paper Covers Stone’ is much starker. Recorded in a changing format of solo, duo, trio and quartet arrangements, Robert Fisher has said about ‘Paper Covers Stone’ that it has a “living room” feel and much of it has an earthy blues/folk sound. On it whole songs change tone and also sometimes meaning.
Opener ‘Soft Hand’ was a breezy pop anthem in its original version on ‘Regard the End’, but the version on ‘Paper Covers Stone’, with a mournful brass and Curry’s winding viola steadily taking dominance,is much more forlorn and sad. When Fisher sings wistfully about his love interest, “There I made you smile/Made you smile again”, it is as if the affair is over, a tarnished memory rather than as on the first recording one which was still in bloom.
‘No Such Thing as Clean’, the track from ‘Flying Low’ and a song about both drugs and a breakdown, was in its initial draft a discordant indie rock number that over the course of its eight minute running time built and built. On ‘Paper Covers Stone’, it is cut by almost a quarter and smoulders throughout, a sudden explosion into noise seemingly promised but never coming, making a dark, already tautly wound track even more tense. Fisher on the first version sounded angry and self-disgusted at his situation, but on this he comes across as simply crushed.
‘Distant Shore’ from ‘Let It Roll’ is shorn of all of its lavish instrumentation down to just a sparse acoustic guitar and Fisher’s world worn vocals. Written from the perspective of a soldier writing home to his loved ones on the eve of his certain death at a battle in the American Civil War, it loses none of its compassion or haunting power. ’Painter Blue’ was an abstract jazz number on ‘Pilgrim Road’, but, with Curry’s stunning singing saw shifted up the mix to a wailing fore rather than being a secondary instrument as on the first version, it is reconfigured as a drone piece.
This is all, of course, all highly impressive. Hard proof of a group that, far from being a spent force, is still making demands on itself and, as it has already shown time and time again in its live shows, refusing to play it safe even with its own back catalogue.
Asserting defiantly that they are, however, not in any shape simply trading on past glories with ’Paper Covers Stone’ and are very much a band of the present, Fisher and the Willard Grant Conspiracy have, however, also recorded three new songs for ‘Paper Covers Stone’.
‘Scars’, the first of these’, is a choppy folk number, featuring a fluttering acoustic guitar, Curry’s see-sawing viola and echoing harmonies from Fisher and Wynn. “Wash your scars with kerosene/Make them shine for all to see,” sings Fisher biblically in its chorus about a relationship being destroyed by ill communication and lies.
The second, ‘Preparing for the Fall’, is one of the few plugged-in tracks on this otherwise largely acoustic album, and is a slow-burning seven minute powerful mesh of discordant, psychedelic guitars and Curry’s teetering strings. Almost hallucinatory in tone, the Baptist-born Fisher imagines on it, as he sees storm clouds and heavy rain crossing the desert where he now lives, an apocalyptic encounter with the Devil.
The last new song, and the final track on the album, ‘The Ocean Doesn’t Want Me’, is at one level blackly comic, but at another similarly frightening and sinister. “The ocean doesn’t want me today, but I’ll be back tomorrow to play,” whispers Fisher as a lightly wispy guitar combines with the skittering sounds of Curry’s ghostly viola, bringing ‘Paper Covers Stone’ to an eerie, but dynamic close.
‘Paper Covers Stone’ is remarkable, an album that both reconvenes with past and also provides plenty of hope for the future. As brave and inventive as it is frequently surprising, it is a magnificent montage of reworkings of already classic material and instantly essential new songs.
