behind the veil - pornografia exposed: raubbau unveils a temporal interlude,
produced between the ant-zen albums 'culture vs. nature' and 'done rooms.' this
marks a more obscure step in the collective's evolution, driven by the creative
minds of andreas schramm, andrea börner, and leigh hunt, with the obvious
contributors joining their journey. diverging from the familiar sound,
'pornografia' introduces a raw, darker, and more industrial side of
templegarden's.
in a haze of youthful enthusiasm, the collective crafted a sonic landscape
where gritty textures and cold, metallic sounds take center stage, immersing
listeners in an experience resonating with the shadows of the wasteland. the
extended visceral exploration of otherworldly sounds leaves an indelible mark.
and yet, 'pornografia' holds surprises: the final, cryptically untitled track
unveils a lush shoegaze instrumental - a departure that adds a layer of
complexity, a sonic oasis in the midst of industrial desolation. as a whole,
'pornografia' showcases templegarden's willingness to experiment, redefine
sonic boundaries, and courage. it stands as a testament to their timeless
commitment, well worth rediscovery. first released in 1997 as a cassette tape
and later as a cd-r, the circle now closes with this final reissue. join us in
exploring the depths of 'pornografia' - an auditory journey into the
experimental and the unknown.
