OUT NOW- 10 to the Power of 9, Volume 2

This is the Second Volume of a complex story about conspiracy, magic, and spirituality. Minimal synths, guitars, syncopated rhythms that are making weird, psychedelic and transcendental noises which are of course accompanied by the distinctive voice of Ka-Spel. Lying on your sofa, pumping up the volume and just dream away on their ethereal sounds. 10 to the Power of 9 is a dark and exceptional trip into their warped and bizarre musical psyche.

Autumn 2014 Newsletter

Sometimes you set yourself the task of putting together a newsletter and become stuck while typing the opening sentence.  Where to begin? There’s just, well, so much happening in the wild World of The Legendary Pink Dots.

A carefully constructed programme of releases  seems redundant now as so much seems to be coming out at the same time.

Still, if you’ll bear with me, all will be laid out in the paragraphs to come- and I sincerely hope nothing will be accidentally forgotten (like in the LAST newsletter, damn it).

Live shows are also in the pipeline , so we hope to see you in November!

IMPORTANT:

For all orders please write to EK at qaspel@gmail.com regarding availability. Alternatively this is our site for direct orders: legendarypinkdots1.bandcamp.com

Summer 2014 Newsletter

 Firstly, there is this…….

109

The story went like this…….

“There are 10 people who run the World. They are all male and presidents, magnates and high priests all do their bidding. The 10 live in villas in the remotest part of the Himalayas- a place that absolutely NO – ONE would ever stumble upon. Although the 10 live in such close proximity to each other, they choose to have meetings in the back room of a small office in London. That’s where the decisions are made. That’s where the wars begin, that’s where the dice are tossed across the table to establish who wins, who loses, who lives, who dies.”

The classic conspiracy theory to end them all and I listened, open-mouthed, hair falling into my eyes.  It was maybe 1976 when I heard this first.

You are right to snigger at my naivety.  I listened and twisted this story around inside my head, and it did indeed seem completely unbelievable.

Now of course it’s 2014, and Im older and wiser and I have to laugh at myself too. Now I know wasn’t a theory. Now I know it’s true. Continue reading Summer 2014 Newsletter →
