The follow-up to last year's Rupture sees Steven Stapleton and Graham Bowers exploring the inner reaches of the psyche. Parade is due for release soon on the interdisciplinary arts group/record label Red Wharf.
Parade: The second studio album release by Nurse With Wound and Graham Bowers delves into the multiple manifestations of the human form and psyche. The music is an audio sketch-pad, capturing a Commedia dell’Arte type procession of the extremes and banalities of what we are, and what we do, on this bizarre and indefinable one-way trip to oblivion.
A continuous and thematic piece of music divided into eight tracks:
OFF TO HELL ON A HANDCART
APES AND PEACOCKS
THE BELLS OF HELL GO TING A’LING A’LING
RING A’RING O’ROSES
A TISSUE OF DECEIT
RATS, CATS AND DOGS
BEYOND THE PALISADE
THE BITTER END
The CD features original artworks by Babs Santini and Graham Bowers, and a special double vinyl limited edition album is scheduled for release in the Autumn.
Sound samples are available on the Red Wharf website.
