2004, Kranky
"Monument" is a recording of guitar music from Tom Carter of Charalambides and the second in a series of Charalambides-related reissues by kranky. A few days before a live performance in March 2001, Carter recorded two tracks of solo lap steel guitar. Originally released on 55 CD-Rs on Wholly Other, the two tracks are now being reissued by kranky for wider release. The first track, "Monument 1 (Memorial)," is slightly longer than two minutes and barely reveals itself. The second, "Monument 2," is 47 minutes in length and considerably more expansive and louder than the opening cut. The album was made using lap steel guitar, glass slides, digitech tsr-12 stereo reverb, a rat distortion pedal, and craftsman screwdrivers.
