GAË BOLG AND THE CHURCH OF FAND John Barleycorn must die Trumpets and drums enliven and drive these 8 tracks of symphonic martial music ranging from neoclassical through neomediaeval to something more industrial. This is the first full-length album from this exotically-named project which is the work of Eric Roger who plays trumpet with Sol Invictus and L'Orchestre Noir. For those not steeped in Celtic mythology, Gaë Bolg was the foot-launched, belly-ripping, barbed spear given to the hero, Cuchulain, whilst Fand was wife to the seagod, Manannan, and one of Cuchulain's lovers. The digipak is inscribed with a 'Gaë Bolg recipe'. This must be a first. How endearingly French! Rik - 12 March 2000
