Athlantis
Athlantis is a live album by violinist/multi-instrumentalist Eyvind Kang which was released in 2012 on Ipecac Recordings. Reception. The PopMatters review by Sean Murphy stated "Those who cherish the oddness in Kang (or, to invoke another of his wonderfully appropriate album titles, the “sweetness of sickness”), won't be disappointed here". The Allmusic review by Stephen Eddins observed "The music of "Athlantis" defies easy pigeonholing, so identifying its attributes may be the best way to describe it. Its primary quality is an aura of dark mystery, a sense of conjuring supernatural forces. This is not the kind  of piece most people would want to listen to alone in the dark". Spin noted ""Athlantis", Kang's second disc for Ipecac, is truly out there. Inspired by Renaissance-era texts, he utilizes the voices of Mike Patton and Jessika Kenney to render his chillingly phantasmal choral arrangements. Think the monolith scene from as rendered by Mr. Bungle and you're almost there." Track listing. "All compositions by Eyvind Kang with lyrics by Giordano Bruno (tracks 2-5, 8, 11 & 12) and Marbod of Rennes (tracks 6 & 9)" Ensemble di Ottoni di Modena Coro da Camera di Bologna
