Call Back the Giants

Keyboard/electronics player for the Shadow Ring, Tim Goss. If I'd've had to guess what post-Shadow projects would sound like, it wouldn't be what Lambkin's actually done, but more like this. Goss frumps about on some synths & intones doom-filled words in a spectacularly cheerless, beetle-browed accent. There's even a dreary-minded lady assistant who reads a few lines. Recorded slightly hot & then turned way down, to give it just a dash of overdriven edge. Lots of leslie-speaker purr, bells, & quiet beeps underline the mounds of hopelessness.
