DESCRIPTION: “The Electric Dragon of Venus” is the first full length record since Clinical Shyness, in the meantime a track from MDK was
published on a 7” split with Rella the Woodcutter and other five old tracks appeared on the split cd series “5 Pezzi Facili”
under the “Cynical Quietness EP” name.
From this collection of songs emerges the multifaceted nature of the project in the form of arrangements which blend the sharpness of the guitar-based noise feedback element with more feeble and delicate sounding episodes , always maintaining the minimal yet uncompromising character of the bare naked song-writing. Once again, discomfort and undigested habits are brought to the listener without filters, it’s a bitter bitter world and My Dear Killer is back to remind us. Life’s no good again. |

REVIEWS: Chain DLK, Kalporz, Blow Up... My Dear Killer è qui ora, risciacqua il lo-fi nella corrente del folk classico e ci consegna un lavoro che, lontanissimo da ogni posa naif, mette in mostra senza paura timidezza e precarietà, trasformandole in elementi caratterizzanti della propria poetica. Per quanto in apparenza paradossale, si può parlare di piena maturità." - [Emiliano Zanotti] Uno per tutti lo struggente Magnetic Storm, che dimostra come il ragazzo sia uscito dalla cameretta post rock di fine anni '90 per rinchiudersi in un bar, nell'angolo in fondo, a meditare sulle umane miserie." - [Antonello Comunale ] The Electric Dragon Of Venus is surely not an easy record and we even recommend to use headphones as otherwise the details (which matter!) could get lost. If you're out for Tim Buckley on drones, then My Dear Killer might be the answer." - [Didier BECU] A certain embitterment together with occasional sick angst resurfaces from MDK's depths, but there are many intense epic moments, among which the above-mentioned "Magnetic Storm", "Scent of the Water", "Mild Eyes" and "Frozen Lakes" seems proper highlights to my inner eardrum." [Vito Camarretta] |
