Miasma & The Carousel of Headless Horses- Perils
Miasma & The Carousel of Headless Horses are a British instrumental quintet whose dark, antiquated-sounding music encompasses elements of Eastern European folk, avant-rock, broken-down calliope music, and neo-classical film composition. In keeping with Mimicry tradition, their music can only be compared to many artists at once: In this case Angelo Badalamenti, Astor Piazzolla, Goblin, Art Bears, Burzum, Tom Waits, Antioch Arrow, King Crimson, Bach and Univers Zero. More a trip to an anachronistic world of neo-baroque psychedelia than a simple study in diced-up eclecticism, the music on Perils sways between lush chamber-oriented melancholia, apocalyptic bombast, and epic ghost train high-drama.
Tracklist:
- Blackening Crows Templar
- Maga, The
- Peacock the Herectic
- Perilous Fathoms
- Rabbits Foot
- Whitening Foxes Templar
- Gypsy Funeral: Hark! From the Tombs Doleful Sound
- Pale Staircase, The
- Iridescence: Peacocks Tail
- Asmodius Arise
- Redding: Blood of the Pelican
- Optician, The
- Ouroboros: Phoenix Rising
