Steve Moore Solo CD

(PR) Steve Moore, best known for his work as one half of the sci-fi instrumental duo Zombi, has announced the forthcoming release of his first solo effort The Henge via extreme music label Relapse Records (Mastodon, Pig Destroyer, High On Fire.) In contrast to Zombi's tightly structured nightmare epics, The Henge is a huge, sprawling, psychedelic symphonic affair. Over the course of its five tracks, the album treats listeners to a blissful dose of audio vertigo, by mixing vast ambient dronescapes and soaring beat driven melodies with Moore's patented cinematic brand of keyboard virtuosity.
Relapse will issue The Henge in late October, a fitting choice for Moore's horror-movie style songs. Moore describes his approach to the self-recorded album saying, "this album represents a turning point in my writing - a subtle shift in direction that is only apparent when considering the album as a whole. While no track is too far removed from the harmonic language I create through my work with Zombi, this album gives me a chance to expand my tonal palette by experimenting with different instrumentations."
"The album is meant to be viewed as a small step in a new direction, exploring some of the more ambient, drone-oriented ideas I've written over the last couple years," Moore explains. "Although I always enjoy collaborative writing, the challenge of single-handedly developing an idea from conception to completion can sometimes be an even more rewarding experience."
