Breath of Fire - CD

De Dionyso is an energy conduit, driving through the nameless territories held between surrealist automatism, shamanic séance, and the folk imagery of rock and roll. The sounds on his first solo album are hysterical, intellectual, magical, hilarious, sad, ecstatic, and beautiful. While Arrington's work with Old Time Relijun brought much in the way of both critical praise and notoriety for ecstatic rock deconstructions and frenzied performances on the edge of possession, "Breath of Fire" is a very different sort of beast. Like field recordings from a lost continent, these short pieces conspire to present a completely mysterious sound universe, unlike anything you've heard before. An ethnography of intergalactic avant-primitive folk music, a dream diary without words, that enwraps in resonant sound.
