Neurosis & Jarboe – Within
No?
Didn’t think so, but I still felt compelled to share this gem. Jarboe:
In the late 80′s/90′s Jarboe worked side by side with Gira (yes, mr. Angels of Light himself) in the punk-ish band Swans.
Over the past decade she has gone solo singer/songwriter status, producing numerous goth and heavily heavily experimental albums. Her collaboration record is huge, ranging from the dark metal band Neurosis to working with Maynard on APC projects and Puscifer stuff. In all honesty, what sucked me into this woman was getting completely tranced out and freaked out by this video. I know this music doesn’t necessarily appeal to the readers of this site, but this woman has such a huge career across the musical board that I feel like something is there. She is slightly too experimental and dark for me me, but I continue to listen to the album she did with Neurosis, and will probably purchase more of her vast library simply because it feels good to stretch my musical ear in ways I’m not used to.
Anyways, read up more on her if interested, but in the least, enjoy this song/video.

I give Swans a spin every once in a while and they sorta just reinforce why I don’t like much post-rock. Took me 10 years to appreciate Slint, so let’s just say the jury’s still out with me.

Like I said, this music isn’t even all that appealing to me. Grossly enthralled and appealing are two different things however…credit to whoever actually sat through and watched that video until the twisted end.
