Le Sacre Du Soleil Invaincu

Triple vinyl LP pressing. Founded in Brussels in 2018 by Guillaume Cazalet and Jean Jacques Duerinckx, NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM is an experimental collective pushing the boundaries of drone, free jazz, and doom metal by trance-inducing rhythms, cosmic psychedelia, and primal sonic rituals. Recorded in 2023 at St John's on Bethnal Green church in London and expertly mastered by James Plotkin, NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM's new album "Le Sacre Du Soleil Invaincu (LSDSI)" is a monumental journey that captures a transformative experience within the church's walls, merging architecture, energy, and sound thanks to a hypnotic blend of amplified drones, Indian classical music and raw spiritual energy. Over four days, NNMM undertook a residency in the church, forming an unusual yet profound bond with it's architecture and the history and energy it held within. In this space, they morphed into a new entity, turning their performance into an ecstatic experience. The resulting final piece spans two hours and revisits 3 Ragas of Indian classical music: Raga Marwa, Raga Todi and Raga Bairagi.
