Skrol-Heretical Antiphony (1999)


Conceptual album. Recorded 1997. Musicians: Vladimi­r Hirsch - composition, organ, synths, piano, sampler, drums, vocal, Martina Sanollová¡ - vocal, Tom Saivon - samples, lyrics. The album was created on the base of Vladimí­r Hirsch suite SIMPLICITY OF HERESY (1995-6). This is a composition of epic character, centred on the religious and seemingly obsolete theme of heresy, which nonetheless functions as a mere symbolic expanse for the central idea. While making use to a great extent of unique synthesised sounds of string instruments, brass, classical organ, densely enhanced piano, drums and combinations of these, the atmosphere mentioned above serves here, contrary to other works by SKROL, only as a sort of hardly identifiable background. The conceptual affinity to model composers is evident in a few songs, but does not surpass the scope of respect. Severe militant rhythms enhance the relentless music, along with a basis of instrumental loops. Their obstinate character should serve as a counterpoint to the melodic themes developed upon them.
