Mirror Emperor (Black Vinyl)

Zu93 is the effectively named collaboration between David Tibet of current 93 and the everchanging Italian group Zu. Their album, mirror emperor, echoes pivotal moments from the respective catalogues of its creators. Gentle guitars, weeping cellos, the occasional rumbling bass and soft percussion, are melted and gently poured into the sepulchral engine. The sound of a magical chamber orchestra or cæsar legions?
