Beyond The Pale

Originally recorded way back in 1992 - Beyond The Pale was E.A.R.'s first album, although it remained unreleased until 1996. Pete Kember, working with Eddie Prevost (AMM), Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine), and Kevin Martin (God, Techno Animal) recorded six tracks at Far Heath Studios, Northampton and mixed the resulting audio at MBV Studios, London. This release for 2008 features artwork from the highly collectable artist Kozick, with design overseen by Pete Kember. Beyond The Pale is basically what you might hear if you were to take away the actual songs from a Spacemen 3 or MBV record. Hypnotic waves of heavily treated guitars, keyboards, percussion, and saxophone endlessly unravel and re-knit themselves without regard to melody or song structure.
