Sleep Chamber ::: Sonorous Invokations Ov Brian Jones


SONOROUS INVOKATIONS OV BRIAN JONES is SLEEP CHAMBER's 19th album.
As on BRIAN JONES' album PRESENTS THE PIPES OF PAN AT JOUJOUKA, this album is about the traditional ritual music of Morocco. JOHN ZEWIZZ of SLEEP CHAMBER impressively adapts this music by the use of flutes, horns, bells, cymbals etc., mixed with samples of BRIAN JONES. The last track contains parts of an interview done with JONES during his time in the military.  The whole album is underlayed by the typical dark sounds of SLEEP CHAMBER. The result is a masterpiece of classical ritual industrial music, which can be compared to SLEEP CHAMBER's cult album SEXMAGICK RITUAL.

 "Through the years John Zewizz has remained a fan of both the early Rolling Stones and Brian Jones.  He considered the Brian Jones era of The Rolling Stones as both cryptic and exotic.  Brian Jones was the one who introduced the Stones to magick, exotic drugs, and the concept behind the Stones SexMagick LP “Their Satanic Majesties Request”.  “Their Satanic Majesties Request” is probably Zewizz’s favorite musickal score.   John decided to play homage to Jones and the “Satanic Majesties” LP with the SLEEP CHAMBER release "Sonorous Invokations Ov Brian Jones".  The “Sonorous” recordings were set-up at Zewizz’s apartment in a copy-cat fashion to invoke the same energy and layout as the Stones “Satanic Majesties” sessions.   On the first day of the recording John greeted Andrew Woolf and his girlfriend Sin at the door of his apartment with "party favors" and took them into his apartment.  The whole place was set up like a shrine - with candles everywhere, burning incense, and every blind drawn shut.  This was to be an actual invokation.  The sessions took 2 weeks.   For the entire duration of the sessions no one was allowed to leave the apartment.    The outside world ceased to exist.  The sessions were plagued by a variety of weird and spooky events that left the participants convinced they had been successful..."
