Red Temple Spirits
Los Angeles quartet Red Temple Spirits skillfully mix post-punk influences - mid-period Cure, Savage Republic, early (Death) Cult - with a loving dose of lysergic psychedelia (Syd Barrett and Roky Erickson are particular touchstones). Bassist Dino Paredes and guitarist Dallas Taylor coax entrancing drones and pulses from their instruments with judicious uses of echoe and other effects, while shamanistic frontman William Faircloth (a colorful immigrant from Britain's original '60s psychedelic movement) delves into mysticism (Native American on the first album, Tibetan on the second) with a grace and passion rarely seen before.Dancing to Restore an Eclipsed Moon is an astonishing debut. The luxurious packaging (doubleLP/single CD) mirrors the care put into the music, which tastefully incorporates flutes, bells, natural sounds (water, birds) to create a heady atmosphere of ritualistic ecstasy. Short catchy compositions like 'Dreamings Ending' alternate with several long and complex pieces.

On A Day Like Today...
Rowland Stuart Howard (24 October 1959 – 30 December 2009)
Sleep Alone
First I shut down the stars because
You said they ruled us
Then I took out Mars
He was the cruelest
His lover followed suit
By way of suicide
And the others stood there silent
As I dealt out peace of mind
Shut me up
Shut me down
Stop me if you can
My love, I'll show you nothing
I'm a misanthropic man
Shut me up
Shut me down
Stop me if you can
My love, I'll show you nothing
I'm a misanthropic man
Shut me up
Shut me down
Stop me if you can
My love, I'm less than nothing
I'm a misanthropic man
This is a journey
To the edge of the night
I've got no companions
Only Celine's on my side
Don't need nothing from no-one
The needle's in the red
Nothing to lose
Everything's dead
Shut me up
Shut me down
Stop me if you can
My love, I'll show you nothing
I'm a misanthropic man
Shut me up
Shut me down
Stop me if you can
My love, I'm less than nothing
I'm a misanthropic man
The sky is empty
The earth as still as stone
Nothing stands above me
Now I can sleep alone
