The Legendary Pink Dots is an Anglo-Dutch experimental rock band formed
in London in August 1980. Although far outside the mainstream (in terms
of their music and career path), LPD have released more than 40 albums,
have a devoted worldwide following, and tour frequently.
The core members of the group, Edward Ka-Spel (vocals, keyboards,
songwriter) and Phil Knight (a.k.a. The Silverman) (keyboards,
electronics), are joined by Erik Drost (guitars) and Raymond Steeg (live
sound engineer). The band’s debut for Metropolis Records, entitled The Gethsemane Option,
is a seven song, hour long exploration in textural ambience and rock
experimentalism. Featuring Ka-Spel’s distinctive vocals and lyrical
imagery blended with hypnotic guitar and synth washes and spellbinding
bass pulses, The Gethsamane Option is a musical laudanum induced fever dream. An enthralling, captivating release.
