Band of Pain 'Uncle God’s Pag Pag Banquet' CDs & Vinyl etching
November 2024
Three years in the making, at last here is the stunning new Band Of Pain album. It features contributions from Steven Stapleton and Andrew Liles from NURSE WITH WOUND and Jean-Hervé Peron and Jeanne-Marie Varain from FAUST, as well as the usual suspects.
It is packaged in a beautiful gloss laminated 12” gatefold sleeve with artwork that is unique to this release by Steven Stapleton (Babs Santini). It also features calligraphy by the wonderful Geoff Cox, who is known for his previous work for Current 93/NWW and, of course, the book “England’s Hidden Reverse”.
The format is a 2 CD set – one CD for side one and one for side two. This keeps with the intended LP concept, but has CD fidelity for the best audio quality for this type of music. In the sleeve’s rear opening is a vinyl LP. It’s an unplayable 12” record with exclusive Steven Stapleton etchings.
