Birchville Cat Motel - Black Void Orange Cat

Review by Lori Witzel

Birchville Cat Motel's latest album, Black Void Orange Cat, is a masterpiece of experimental music. The album is a journey through a sonic landscape that is both haunting and beautiful. The music is a fusion of ambient, drone, and noise, with a heavy emphasis on texture and atmosphere.

The album opens with the track "Black Void Orange Cat," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track is a slow, brooding piece that builds in intensity as it progresses. It is an excellent introduction to the album, and it immediately draws the listener in.

The album's standout track is "The Sun is a Maze," a 15-minute epic that is both hypnotic and mesmerizing. The track is a slow burn, with layers of sound building and receding, creating a sense of movement and momentum. It is a beautiful piece of music that showcases Birchville Cat Motel's mastery of the genre.

About Birchville Cat Motel

Birchville Cat Motel is a one-man experimental music project formed by Campbell Kneale from Wellington, New Zealand. Although largely unknown in his home country, Kneale has toured throughout Japan, America, Europe, and Australia. His first vinyl release was Jewelled Wings on the Freedom From label. Many of Kneale's rare and out of print recordings have been reissued recently on a 6cdr collection entitled Chaos Steel Skeletons. Kneale operates the labels Celebrate Psi Phenomenon and Battlecruiser which have issued CDs by artists from New Zealand and overseas, including Matthew Bower (under the name Mirag) and Simon Wickham-Smith with recent releases by Richard Youngs and Alex Neilson and one involving Tony Conrad. Kneale has used Birchville Cat Motel as a vehicle for many collaborations with other musicians, including Lee Ranaldo, Neil Campbell, and Bruce Russell. He also records under the names Black Boned Angel and Ming and compiled the Prince tribute album Shut Up Already Damn!. After being active as Birchville Cat Motel for 10 years, Campbell has recently disbanded this project to focus on his new project Our Love Will Destroy The World.
