 | For your listening pleasure, we proudly present the first download from the pre-soundtrack of The Miskatonic Acid Test, the currently filming feature film from AMerican Entropy Productions. The song is Where the Sun Touches the Sky, by The Conqueror Wyrms. Led by perpetually scowling lead singer Derek Thanatogenes, The Conqueror Wyrms were a mainstay of the Arkham scene in the mid-to-late 1960's, notable for their use of the electric twelve-string guitar in a garage-rock context. "Where the Sun Touches the Sky" was their biggest regional hit, going top ten up and down the Miskatonic River valley in 1966. Like all of the Wyrms' recorded works, it's an original composition with literate lyrics and an obsession with death. It is believed that Thanatogenes acted on this obsession in the early 70's; though there is still some speculation about the odd circumstances of his death - skeptics doubt that it's possible to sever one's own head, no matter how large the bolt cutters. | |||

(Thanks to Raoul Pendeghast, author of One Big Groovin' Kaleidoscopic Calliope: New England Psychedelic Music 1966-1975.for the historical info!) This is an early mix of the version of the song that will appear on the soundtrack of the film; it's a live performance by Wyrms at the Miskatonic Acid Test (slightly sloppy playing and singing are deliberate to re-create that live feel) though we haven't added crowd noises yet. For collectors I'm including two different versions - I made the mp3 from a normal bias tape and corrected for flatness with EQ. Not sure which one I liked better I'm including both.
