{"product_id":"metalepsis","title":"Metalepsis","description":"Alexandra Drewchin of Guardian Alien introduced her Eartheater project with Metalepsis, an early 2015 release which addressed themes such as spirituality, nature, and the internet through a fragmentary mixture of electro-acoustic freak-folk. Her triple-octave voice twists around delicate guitar lines, and things frequently get sidetracked into an echo vortex. A certain bird squeak reoccurs, as if it just happened to be flying through the studio during the recording of the album. The gleeful wordplay of \"Put a Head in a Head\" segues into \"Youniverse,\" which starts out as a glitchy fuzz-pop tune before unexpectedly inserting a portion of a Russian rap freestyle found online. \"Sigil Life\" builds a cloud of violin strokes over a steadily thumping techno beat, before diving deep into the ether with \"Orbit,\" a ten-minute swirl of corroded chiming tones and bird chirps assembled by Good Willsmith's MrDougDoug. Once this fully transports your mind into a distant zone, the album concludes with the unexpectedly direct \"Infinity,\" a gorgeous and catchy string of thoughts about Kundalini and universal evolution. Drewchin would subsequently take Eartheater in a much more abrasive, confrontational, and political direction, reaching more of an experimental club audience with 2018's IRISIRI, and while that album is certainly a striking work, there's something magical about her debut which made it stand apart. ~ Paul Simpson","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52808786411807,"sku":"634457743724","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/d2b9bbaa64d98ac7ebfae7c4db95fec4.jpg?v=1787615176","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/metalepsis","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
