Codex Serafini Premiere “Organismic Thought” Video
Who’s up for having their brains pulled out through their nose like some kind of ancient mummification ritual, except with space rock? Everybody, of course.
Codex Serafini have dates lined up between now and the daring, unknowable future — or at least the Fall — and they’ll be popping into and out of our dimension at various stops along the UK’s ever-vital weirdo underground, which is courteous of them when you think about it. Today, HRH’s masked purveyors of transposonic freakery have unveiled a video for “Organismic Thought,” which is the opening track from 2021’s four-song-and-that’s-all-you-can-handle EP, Invisible Landscape (review here), and true to the general extremity of their purpose, it brings forth a cosmic noise that’s been manipulated to suit the group’s purposes like so much irradiated clay, harnessing delta waves of crunchy garage rock guitar and stomping drums while peppering in jazz, drone and more than a dash of oh-I-just-thought-of-this-thing-I’m-gonna-try-it, for good measure.
This is music by aliens for aliens, but don’t let that stop you, humble earthling, from taking a peek beneath the veil of post-Big Bang gravitational sheer, uncovering untold quadrillions of dimensions — have you seen the one yet where we’re all turtles? that’s a favorite — in not at all quiet engagement, as though the noise were the key itself and maybe it is. I’m talking about prime fuckery, hoo-man, and whether or not you can get on board their ship as ambassador from this recklessly wasted, beautiful planet we inhabit doesn’t really matter anyhow, because one way or the other, Codex Serafini are already gone. Certainly there are more interesting sights to see, if can you call what they do with all those tentacles “seeing” in the way we think of it. Which you probably can’t. Transwarp.
Take a breath for all the good it’ll do you.
