A Crimson Grail




Rhys Chatham is an American composer of the avant-garde variety. Incidentally he has a lot of ties with the American punk/noise scene. He originally composed this colossal minimalist work to be performed outside by 200 guitarists. But for the recording he took it up several notches, recording inside of a cathedral with 400 fucking guitarists. Its like honey in your ears.
