Laniakea

This is an archive item from Supersonic 2017

Laniakea is the galactic gospel trio of Massimo Pupillo (Zu) and Daniel O’ Sullivan (Ulver etc.) and Jessica Moss (A Silver Mt. Zion). Cosmic hymns and atomised riffs slowed and stretched to unveil a pantheon of sound drawing on a rich tapestry of influences ranging from the plainchant of Hildegard von Bingen to Alice Coltrane’ s Ashram tapes to the monolithic bass frequencies of Godflesh. “An eerie fugual cascade, like a choir arriving from a point beyond death” the music of Laniakea rumbles with the primal forces of the earth while resounding with something both celestial and ominous.
