CONTENT: ‘A Winged Victory For The Sullen’ is the first installment of the new collaboration between Stars Of The Lid founder Adam Wiltzie and L.A. composer Dustin O’Halloran. The duo agreed to leave the comfort zone of their home studios and develop the recordings with the help of large acoustic spaces, hunting down a selection of 9ft grand pianos that had the ability to deliver extreme sonic low end. Other traditional instrumentation was used including string quartet, French horn, and bassoon, but always juxtaposed is the sound of drifting guitar washed melodies. The recordings began with one late night session in the famed Grunewald Church in Berlin on a 1950s imperial Bösendorfer piano and strings were added in the historic East Berlin DDR radio studios along the River Spree. One last session on a handmade Fazioli piano in a private studio on the Northern cusp of Italy, before the final mixes took place in a 17th century villa near Ferrara with the assistance of Francesco Donadello. All songs were then processed completely analogue straight to magnetic tape. Their secret to harvesting new melodic structures from the thin air of existence was for the duo to push themselves to dangerous territory, realising that clear thinking at the wrong moment could stifle the compositions. The final result is seven landscapes of harmonic ingemination. In ‘Requiem For The Static King Part One’ – created in memory of the untimely passing of Mark Linkous – they have taken the age-old idea of a string quartet and then shot it out of a cannon to reveal exquisite new levels of sonic bliss. Of the 13 minute track ‘Symphony Pathétique’, Wiltzie says ‘after almost 20 years of struggling to create interesting ambient drone music, I feel like I have finally figured out what I am doing’. Notable guest musicians include Icelandic cellist Hildur Gudnadottir, as well as Erased Tapes label comrade Peter Broderick on violin. A Winged Victory For The Sullen is not a side project – it is the future of the late night record you have always dreamed of.

CONTEXT: On May 24th 2007, in Bologna, Italy, Adam was on tour and playing with the late Mark Linkous & his beloved Sparklehorse, on what would be their final European tour. That night Adam invited friend and colleague Francesco Donadello to see the concert, and Francesco's guest this evening was composer Dustin O'Halloran (Sofia Coppola’s ‘Marie Antoinette’ O.S.T.). Through a strange twist of backstage conversations surrounding passport cache conundrums, and love of Italian gastronomy, a curious friendship began that now has brought forth an offspring of truly curative compositions for the world to savour.

As announced by Pitchfork and Drowned In Sound the self-titled debut album of A Winged Victory For The Sullen will be released worldwide on September 9, 2011 via Erased Tapes Records (except for North America where it will be out on Kranky).

Helios - Bless This Morning Year

Brian Eno - By This River

می‌گذرد در شب آئینهٔ رود خفته هزاران گل در سینهٔ رود
گُلبُـن لبخنــد فــردائــی مــوج سـر زده از اشک سیمینهٔ رود

فَرازِ رود نغمه خوان
شکفته باغ کهکشان
مـی ســوزد شــب در ایــن میــان

رود و سرودش اوج و فرودش مـی رود تا دریـای دور
بـــــاغ آئینـــــه دارد در سینــه مـی رود تا ژرفای دور

(موجی در موجی می‌بندد
بر افسون شب می‌خندد
با آبی‌ها می‌پیوندد) ۲

فـردا رود افشـان ابـریشـم در دریـا مـی خوابــد
خورشید از باغ خاور می‌روید بر دریا می‌تابد

(موجی در موجی می‌بندد
بر افسون شب می‌خندد
با آبی‌ها می‌پیوندد) ۲

فـردا رود طغیـان شــورافکـن در دریـا مـی خـوابــد
خورشید از شرق سوزان می‌روید بر دریا می‌تابد

(موجی در موجی می‌بندد
بر افسون شب می‌خندد
با آبی‌ها می‌پیوندد) ۲
