about

The second LP from UR KAOS. Even more turbulent and intense than the first one. Growing out of the chaotic unconditional darkness, these songs were slowly sculptured in a continuous process of studiowork. The cover by Roj Friberg is a congenial expression of the heavy and terrible beauty in this music.
“A dreamlike floating album … I was firmly sucked into their world of bold, individual music. I applaud its entry into the nineties.” (Outlet)
As guest-guitarist appears Magnus Hayashi Alexandersson.
“The Irish poet Yeats spoke prophetically on a coming ‘terrible beauty’. This seems now to be the only beauty, able to combine with a clear and observant view on reality.” (Artur Lundkvist)
Recorded and produced at The Forest Studio, Sturefors, Sweden. 1988-1989.
Lp released 1990 on Bauta Records
