Originally released in 2005 as a limited edition vinyl LP -- the first
Alvarius B.
(
Alan Bishop
/
Sun City Girls
) full-length release in 7 years.
Blood Operatives Of The Barium Sunset
is a collection of songs seemingly based on actual, but unnamed, shady characters of the global underworld past and present, according to the brief statement on the insert. Regardless of intent, this is cryptic folk music of the highest order, with several tracks employing folk/rock/psych orchestrations featuring the talents of
Eyvind Kang
,
Tim Young
,
Richard Bishop
,
Andrew McGinnis
and
Randall Dunn
. Hailed as a masterpiece by a fair number of the few who've actually heard it,
Blood Operatives
... sounds as fresh, challenging, and separated from everything else today, as it did six years ago upon initial release. Twisted Americana folklore breeding with baroque Italian cinematic pop, dark ballads, and vagrant story lines, these 11 unique tracks compile the most "produced" Alvarius B. record to date. CD tri-fold digipak comes with a booklet of song lyrics.
