专辑简介

Building on the success of their first release "The Perfume of Creosote: Desert Exotica Part One," Michael Ely and Spider Taylor of Smoke & Mirrors return to center stage with their newest release, "Deities." This two-disc collection inspired by Hindu gods and goddesses is a mixture of surreal and lush compositions influenced by alternative rock and brimming with powerful beats that set it apart from the usual ambient fare.
　　
　　Fans of Smoke & Mirrors' unorthodox approach to music will be delighted to discover this unique follow-up work in which alternative rock collides with ambient melodies and tribal rhymes, resulting in a collection of exotic, sensual, psychedelic and atmospheric soundscapes. Listeners are taken on a hypnotic and spiritual journey from creation to destruction, only to begin again in the never-ending circle of reincarnation. Punctuated by Ely’s mystical strings and Taylor’s passionate guitars, "Deities" is numinous and earthy, partnered with catchy percussions that keeps one's head in the clouds and feet on the ground--most likely tapping to the beat.
　　
　　This two-disc collection contains 22 tracks of dreamy, ethereal, sometimes explosive and always dramatic soundscapes inspired by the ancient and colorful deities of the world’s oldest religion, Hinduism. The "Deities" soundscapes are filled with the romance and spirituality of the Far East as interpreted by two Westerners steeped in modern rock and film score sensibilities. Once again, the multi-dimensional and highly addictive music of Smoke & Mirrors beckons the listener to enter a complex and layered world laced with beauty and mystery where nothing is quite what it seems, like a lotus blossom floating between the earth and the sky.
