Whether congregating in dimly lit halls or in forests, and whether mediated by e-mailed audiofiles or infiltrating darker realms of consciousness, mysterious forces are being channelled by a shifting collective intent on psychic communion by any means necessary. Bonnacons of Dooms identities may be shrouded and hidden in the live arena, yet the force of their vibrations - as captured on the unearthly vibrations and unholy revelations of their self-titled debut - is gloriously manifest. Whilst the line-up has been known to morph with each undertaking, the prime movers in the principally Liverpool-based collective have included members of Mugstar, Jarvis Cockers band and Youthmovies, donning robes and masks to sculpt altered states and subsume themselves to the ritual. Recording mostly in bands trademark improvisational method at Suburban Home studios by and Hookworms frontman MJ, this recorded incarnation of Bonnacons arcane conjury operates stubbornly free of genre, sashaying alongside psych-rock, repetitive drone and electronic experimentation whilst consumed by a devotional intensity thats multiplied by the transcendental echoing of vocalist Kate. I guess our environment is another key influence reckons Rob. Were almost all from Lancashire and Yorkshire, and the landscape and mythology of the north is part of who we are. I think ultimately what were trying to achieve is a kind of Trans-Pennine hypnotic music. The first pressing of the album comes as an Acid Splatter vinyl in ltd mirrorboard with diecut sleeve.
