MP3: Pimentola - Death is a secret

The Finns do love their tango. Even harsh industrial act Pimentola cannot resist the allure. Naturally, their interpretation of the classic style differs a bit from the norm. The song is anchored by the lilting 1-2-3 of the accordion, but the rhythm is led askew by the rough, Neubauten-inspired percussion, leading to a feeling of uneasy seasickness. Voices whisper in the background and the singing saw sounds absolutely menacing. Guest vocalist Aprox. (yes, with the period punctuation) is mostly buried in the mix, but I can definitely make out some lines concerning the concealment of bones. The tango is usually a song of love or perhaps a bit of melancholy nostalgia; this most certainly is not. This is threatening.

Pimentola - Death is a secret (ft. Aprox.)

I'm still not that into pure Flash-based websites or splash pages, but Pimentola's new website is actually kinda cool: http://www.pimentola.fi/
The song "Hearts dementia" in the jukebox gives me chills.

Cold Meat Industry has posted details and sound samples for new releases from Atrium Carceri and Pimentola: http://www.coldmeat.se/
The Pimentola record sounds especially interesting as it features guest appearances from members of Garmarna, Dead Man's Hill and Aprox.

2007 marks the 20th anniversary of legendary Swedish dark ambient/industrial/noise label Cold Meat Industry and they're celebrating by launching two new offshoots, the first being a DVD imprint entitled Cold Meat Visions. The first release will be a collection of short films from Martin Bladh (IRM/Skin Area) this coming spring. As for the second new imprint, nothing's been revealed yet, but it will be announced soon.
In other CMI news, the label has signed Pimentola, their first Finnish artist. Listen to samples here: http://www.myspace.com/coldmeatindustry
