From the Seattle-based
Climax Golden Twins comes
Imperial Household Orchestra, a CD panoply of bizarre sounds and creative explorations. Meditative stroking of a cactus' prickling stems, the oscillating overtones of ephemeral vibraphone melodies, a bass de-tuned so low that it tunnels, and an array of various live and studio recordings are heard on this CD. From noisy pandemonium and to gentle whispers, the multi-member
Climax Golden Twins lay down experimental swaths of sounds that should please any listener in search of aberrant aural stimuli. ~ John Vallier
