Charalambides ' Strangle The Wretched Heavens' LP
Formed in 1991, Charalambides has always and will forever be the constant core duo of Tom and Christina Carter. Though music scenes and genre classifications ceaselessly change, this duo has stayed "wholly-other" dedicated to a "vision of spiritual music (in all its forms) as transformative force."
Drawing Room is proud to present the first time vinyl release of Strangle... Each LP is pressed on 180-gram vinyl housed in a full color matte jacket (with download) and includes a foldout poster.
The sound of Charalambides is beyond unique. Personal and consistent, it moves forward and outwardly in radical shifts and strategies. Strangle The Wretched Heavens..."We could get lazy and use words like 'spectral' or 'haunting,' but those words open neither ears nor hearts. This music is every bit as supernatural as it is grounded, and what it does, ultimately, is move according to its own internal logic, as our feelings move according to their own internal logic. That is what keeps Charalambides' music relevant, what makes it timeless.
Following one of their earliest seminal releases, the almighty Market Square, Strangle... is the next chapter. Dark and intense, the album is pure beauty inside and out. Its magic is almost indescribable, but its power can be physically felt completely.
