iptamenos3 These sentences from the introduction/description intrigued me so much that I simply had to buy and support this albuu.. uuhm I mean cassette: " 'Conocido' exists in a space unafraid of destruction and similarly immune to the sentimentalism of creation. It blurs melody into a cautionary tale and sends pulse-like rhythms skittering out toward darkness, with the listener left to decide for herself what, if anything, has been gained or lost." And even better: it is an accurate description! Favorite track: Huitzil.

Sedna Of all the flavors out there, this is one of my favorites: droney, shadowy, mysterious. This album is a great version of that flavor. Lots of little subtle details. Perfect chill out stuff for me. Thanks for creating it. Favorite track: 4/24/15 7:35 pm to 7:56 pm.

about

There are moments where growth and decay are indistinguishable, when it’s hard to say for sure if you’re falling to pieces or watching a sublime pre-language unfold. Lyrels’ 'Conocido' is this riddle frozen in time and expanded. Its five tracks are a seamless meditation not on how it is that something becomes nothing, or how nothing is built back into something once again, but on the very real power of that thin sliver of meaning that lies in-between. 'Conocido' exists in a space unafraid of destruction and similarly immune to the sentimentalism of creation. It blurs melody into a cautionary tale and sends pulse-like rhythms skittering out toward darkness, with the listener left to decide for herself what, if anything, has been gained or lost. This tension has its own way of speaking, in the form of old, inherited sounds that have been lost for too long and can only be uncovered through the focus of ritual. While what Lyrels draw forth is never really far from us, the strange, naked beauty of makes it feel nearly alien—or, maybe, capable of alienating us from what we think we know best about how things in this world rise and fall.

Angel, I heard your interview with Jason Woodbury on Aquarium Drunkard's "Transmissions" podcast today. It was truly remarkable and touched my heart. I bought this album immediately afterward and am so grateful to you for this nourishing music in these strange, trying days. I hope I can time my next trip to Chicago to be able to see you perform live. Thank you! Michael Feltes

As haunting and hypnotizing as going through the MGS series in release order and growing more and more captivated by the fandom's fabled Venom Snake without knowing a single thing about him. No, but seriously, this album is a work of art to transport you far, far away, an idea that draws you into the abstract. quietis
