01. Lesbian - Forestelevision
This is not an album in so much as it is a piece of music, almost classical in composition and scope. Like if Beethoven did doom. That's just what 'Forestelevison' really is, a near 45 minute long single track record that is as immense as the horizon is wide. It's a pretty amazing experience. It's quite an unconventional approach, even in today's world of extreme this and that. Many bands will play a single note for an hour and think they are Sunno))) , but they really aren't. It takes balls to set out and attempt to pull off a feat like this. Balls and creativity. You HAVE to keep it fresh, and they manage that in absolute spades. It's a voyage of discovery, and variation, and it just plain rules. The best way to describe this whole thing is to start with the simplistics. Lesbian play doom and drone, with a bit of a prog / psych twist. There are some classic metal flourishes here and there, the sort of soloing that would keep Maiden in Boeing jet rental, but it's bread and butter is the doomier side of the slice. All the instruments are crisp in the mix, and the vocals dance between blackened influences, to clean, to everything inbetween. There really is that much going on. Enjoy!
