Title Description: The second re-issue in the Hafler Trio re-issue series will be The Sea Org. From the strangely becalmed waters of the past comes the regurgitation of The Sea Org, now extended and both sonically as well as visually enhanced beyond the wildest dreams of even the most advanced Operating Thetan. revel in the now perfect presentaton of the live removal of engrams, and feast the senses of all kinds on the banquet set before you - unreleased material in both audible and pictorial and written form. there is no sense in ignoring this. obtain now before the Wog World envelops you and makes all this impossible. Originally released in 1987 by Touch as a 10" record, sold out since many years and once part of 'The Golden Hammer' series, now re-issued in the most definite version. Including four extra tracks, one video (in .mov format), 28 page booklet, poster and postcard.
Vital Review: On goes the reissuing of older works by The Hafler Trio with one of my
personal favourites, The Sea Org. Why my fav, you ask? Well, let me explain.
This records more or less contains everything that The Hafler Trio have done
in their long and outstanding career: drones, cut-ups, layered field
recordings and loop-based work. The only thing "missing" is the spoken word
part. One of the first noticeable things of this release is again the cover:
a deep purple is the basic colour and once again it looks quite stunning.
The second thing is that noise reduction has been kept to a minimum, thank
you very much! This may lack the cleanness of contemporary recordings, but
it certainly has remained clear and crisp and above all: full. About the
music I can be short: it is still as good as it was back then (when was that
again???) and it has lost nothing of its importance to all of the people who
make this sort of music nowadays (I count myself among them). This has the
power and the depth to compel the listener to what he or she is supposed to
do. And that is the most important quality music can have. Let's wait for
all the other reissues! I still have a few on my wish list...(MR)
