about

Dark, Haunted, Obsessional, Confessional, Confrontational, Seductive…. sonically uncompromising, psychologically probing, unapologetically weird.

Percy Howard's Meridiem explores uncomfortable corners of the human psyche, his soaring gospel-tinted classically trained voice threading through deeply etched improvisational textures with an intensity that borders on the psychotic. Robert Rich's surrealist sonic landscape wraps a velvet texture around Meridiem's shadowy pulsating heart. With contributions from Jarboe (Swans, Living Jarboe), Bill Laswell, Eraldo Bernocchi, Haroun Serang, Edo Castro, Ricky Carter, and many others, Meridiem's "A Scattering Time" rewards repeated listening with its unforgettable lingering mood.

This album will grow on you. Listen in headphones or earbuds. It will blow your mind. Steve has so many amazing textures and dimensions on this release. It's hard to pick a favorite track. Probably in his top 5, if there is such a thing. 53Guitarman
