Our Moon is Full is the debut album from Strings Of Consciousness, an ensemble made up of 9 members hailing from Marseille, France, via London, Paris and Chicago. Using their manifesto of uniting acoustic instrumentation and human sensibility with digital technology, the group were able to draft in many talented musicians from across the globe via the Internet. The result: a cohesive, warm, lush, harmonious collection of pieces, feeling as if they live and breathe-in the same air. Narration is key to Our Moon is Full, as it features outstanding vocal contributions from honorary ensemble members J.G. Thirlwell (Foetus/Steroid Maximus), Barry Adamson, Eugene Robinson (Oxbow), Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys), Pete Simonelli (Enablers), Black Sifichi and Lisa Smith-Klossner. Our Moon is Full takes the traditional 2-sided long-playing format to its logical extreme; the dark followed by the light, from one side to another ' not unlike our own moon's cyclic pattern. A collection of several twists and turns, Our Moon is Full immediately sets a sunlit scene of abstraction before taking the listener on scores of aural and visual adventures through (occasionally twisted) soul-bearing confession, pent-up rock, taut & raw emotion and exploratory musical +and lyrical freedom through classical music and literature, melodic drifting ambient, soaring guitars, film-noir, psychosis and pretty much anything and everything between, and surrounding.
