about

According to arcane, ancient cultures, sometimes things must come to an end to be "Eternal". My Cat Is An Alien & Joëlle Vinciarelli's > ETERNAL BEYOND > III is the 3rd and final chapter of a Trilogy born in spring 2015.

Based on a vision of radical and spontaneous free improvisation which the Opalio brothers have pushed to the extreme along their 23 years of tireless activity as MCIAA, the project with Joëlle Vinciarelli has immediately revealed as a key encounter, both artistically and personally.

> ETERNAL BEYOND > tracks’ titles often paid tribute to figures of artists, poets, musicians and outsiders such as Albert Ayler, William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Art Ensemble Of Chicago… Here the clairvoyant title concluding the Trilogy is > ETERNAL ÉTERNITÉ > , an homage to poet Arthur Rimbaud:

“It has been found again.
What? – Eternity.
It is the sea fled away
With the sun.” - A.Rimbaud

Talweg image

Talweg Saint Jeannet, France

Created in 2011, Talweg is a free metal duo from France that features one third La Morte Young. Talweg take the black slow- motion electricity and garbled vocal incantations of death/doom and bisect it with swathes of thrifty free jazz percussion and nod-out flat-lined drones. Radical avant stylings with pure Cro-magnon grunt and cultic energies to birth something deep in the heart of the wood. ... more
