Bleep

A concrete staple in the world of America’s dark underbelly of popular cinema, David Lynch’s ‘Eraserhead’ is a pure unadulterated offering of similarly bleak and beautiful vision, aided and abetted by its dusty, sublime soundtrack. Sacred Bones make a fine move and offer an expanded version of this re-release, set amidst a backdrop of industrial hums, noise and static, we hear eerie piano keys making off into the distance as graying pictures crumble before us. An early industrial masterpiece that includes perhaps the most famous piece of music from ‘Eraserhead’, Peter Ivers’ unforgettable, haunting ballad, ‘In Heaven’.
