For Immediate Release
25
Tracks! 75 Minutes of Naked Rapture! A bold new
studio recording by the internationally acclaimed duo, ICONOCLAST.
Let yourself succumb to the rapture - to the entrancing lyricism, the migraine-inducing
intensity, the hypnotic rhythms, the ear splitting screams, the frenzy and
the calm. Surrender to the mind-altering universe that is ICONOCLAST.
Naked Rapture takes you on a journey of dramatic
and surprising twists and turns, never going where you expect it to.
And for the
first time ever ICONOCLAST has recorded unique interpretations
of two great works: the spectacular “A Night in Tunisia” by Dizzy Gillespie
and Frank Paparelli and, on a different note, the stunning “Revolutionary
Etude” by Frederick Chopin (1810-1839).
“Julie
Joslyn's liquid mercury alto sax (and snarling violin) and Leo
Ciesa's slasher drums (and icily melodic piano) are in full noir
effect on the uncompromising, smartly aware, assaultively lurid effort.”
—Lucid Culture
“Iconoclast plunges us into the very heart of a somber world with nevertheless
a sort of deaf beauty, at the depths of a polar blackness that is both humid
and fascinating.”
—Impro Jazz (France)
Ferocious, intelligent and emotionally powerful music by New York City's
ICONOCLAST. Allow the Rapture to possess you . . . the Naked Rapture.
