Gallic Cones by Ratkiller
Originally self-released on tape.
Edition of 15. Sold out.
Liner notes:
In case you're puzzled about the peculiar title and concept of "Gallic Cones" - well, it's not all nonsense. It illustrates one certain part from my childhood, the time when I used to play with action figures. I also had some comic books. Disney stuff, Lucky Luke, but my favorite was Asterix. I guess mostly due to detailed and carefully depicted historic imagery. It doesn't have very important part in my life nowadays, but some details still haunt my memory. So, when I was sketching the cover art, suddenly for no particular reason those menhirs came to mind. Maybe because I never quite figured out what was the story behind those giant stones. And I thought why not dedicate the whole album to that gallic superhero. As good concept as any other. Though I have to admit that the music doesn't reflect that too clearly. But I hope you still enjoy it.
Yours sincerely,
