The latest signing to Prosthetic Records is London’s CALLIGRAM - a multi-national quintet charging into 2020 intent on making their presence felt. Their first release for the label is "The Eye Is The First Circle" - an eight-track pummelling of raucous guitars, d-beat rhythms, and lyrics sung entirely in Italian.
With members from Brazil, France, Italy, and the UK, CALLIGRAM is a unique amalgam of cultural, musical, emotional, political, and social reference points and influences. Each member brings their own experience to the table to create one unified and distinctive emission. Their uncompromising sound draws from punk rock and the bleak soundscapes of black metal. All of the above combine on "The Eye Is The First Circle" to create a compelling and electrifying communique.
The album title derives from a Ralph Waldo Emerson essay titled Circles which starts: "The Eye Is The First Circle: the horizon which it forms is the second, and throughout nature, this primary figure is repeated without end".
"The Eye Of The First Circle" is a perfect storm; a mixture of elements and experiences that combine in a one-off lightning bolt of serendipity and is is an abrasive, relentless ball of energy, designed to short circuit nerves upon first listen.
Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Lewis Johns at The Ranch Production House during October 2019.
“New art destroys the old” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
