Following the collapse of its distributor, a small number of CD copies of Musick That Destroys Itself by Mount Vernon Astral Temple (aka Drew Mulholland of Mount Vernon Arts Lab) have been returned to their creator and are being made available via this web site.
The album, originally released on Coil’s Eskaton label in late 2002, features two pieces of dense and intense multilayered electronic tones, each clocking in at 20.02 to celebrate the palindromic minute of 20.02 20.02 2002. A full-length bonus CD includes several unreleased live and studio pieces. Cosmi-catastrophic sleeve notes and photography are by Mark Pilkington, design by Peter Christopherson.
This new edition will be “specially treated” by Mr Mulholland, though we don’t yet know exactly what this entails.
The Professor informs us that any copies remaining at the end of April will be consumed by fire in a Beltane purification rite.
CDs are £12 (£10 plus £2 p&p)
