Originally released as a limited edition CD for Larsen's US tour in 2003 and then re-issued 1 year later on vinyl by Seattle based label Enterruption Musm has since been out of print. Finally, Important Records is making it officialy available in a new revised and expanded version with 6 extra tracks and brand new artwork.
Musm II includes all the non-album tracks that Larsen have released since their first full length. No Arms,No Legs, Identification Problems was recorded and produced by Martin Bisi in 1996, and now almost impossible to find. It is represented here by 2 ambient tracks and a brand new editing of some sounds from that album.

To say that Larsen is mysterious or elusive is an understatement. They are are so elusive, in fact, that Micheal Gira of The Swans/Angels Of Light fame once said of Larsen “"I worked intimately with the band for three weeks, but I never saw their faces." Perhaps the finest description of their sound came from a perceptive, if not overly wordy, Italian music journalist who described them as an “italian-cult-collective-urban-folk-ritual-experimental soundscape-wall of love band.” It’s all true.

Under The Cables Into The Wind

Debut solo album from Larsen's Fabrizio Modonese Polumbo.
"...surprisingly gentle inflections, combining low voices, groung hugging mists of keyboards, genial electronic hucklebuck and even acoustic guitar to create small vistas of delightful otherness..."

XXL shirt available

Ciautistico! is the debut album from XXL (Xiu Xiu Larsen), a collaboration between the Italian experimental cult band Larsen and James Stewart's mutated-pop project Xiu Xiu. Both groups consider their joint creative clash as a new band in itself more than just an occasional collaboration as it has been already proved by the succesful sold out theater performances in Italy by XXL.

Larsen's HMKE contains a Deathprod remix and an Origami Galaktika remix of two new Larsen tracks. The remaining two tracks are unremixed Larsen originals unavailable elsewhere and featuring their beloved cellist Julia Kent (also of Antony & The Johnsons.)
The second track M, a Larsen original, will be available on the forthcoming Larsen album Seis but as a Lustmord/Larsen collaboration and not in this original form.

ANOICE
Remmings
$11.99
info, reviews & mp3

Let's get this straight immediately. Anoice is not another instumental group with strong rock tendencies and an armchair association with classical music. Unlike numerous contemporaries which they will undoubtedly be compared to, their goal is not to follow the trends and make the soft/loud/soft/loud juxtapositions in every song, but to carefully craft each song with a strong attention to melody, solid accompaniment, and courteous counterpoint.

The Black Tar Prophecies 1,2,3

info, reviews & mp3

The Black Tar Prophecies is a massive evoltionary step in the established Grails sound and it is shrouded in change and pain. This is their first full length album since leaving Neurosis' Neurot label.
Important is proud to release The Black Tar Prophecies in it's complete form including twofinal tracks not available on the limited edition vinyl only releases. (more)
