the glossy cover is easily damaged. finding a true mint/mint copy is highly unlikely

I can't believe this hasn't had a re-issue on vinyl. -

Great pressing a must have for PT fans, flat and quiet. -
referencing Metanoia (CD, Album) Delec CD079
The reason why I like the CD so much is that it combines two completely different philosophies in making music. On the one side, there is a rock song with intro, chorus, interlude etc. Opposite is the approach of Berlin school and ambient music: lengthy, no structure, not many - if even - harmonic changes.
"Metanoia" is a member of the latter, played by a "rock" band. This makes it so strange - you do NOT get what you expect. You get lengthy, meandering improvisations, played a against a frame of a single mode, with keyboards, guitar, fretless bass, and drums. And it is played very very well, as was to be expected of musicians of that calibre.
The first seven "pieces" flow, and even bass and drums alter subtly, nearly unperceptibly, akin to the best works of, say, Ashra, or Steve Reich.
The last piece, however, is again different. It took me very long to comprehend why it was included. It is just conversation fragments, obviously recorded in Milan. But if you listen closely, it has a structure, and it is the same as in the other pieces. Repetitions, minor changes in texture, variations on a theme.
All in all, really strange, but really good.
