About

Self Sabotage Records, the experimental music imprint of Super Secret Records is proud to present INSIDE THE KINGDOM OF SPLENDOR AND MADNESS, the evocative & emotive cello showcase of Randall Holt.

One of Austin's best classical & experimental cellists, Randall is a member of Knest (with Thor Harris & Jonathan Horne), Horne + Holt and Éléphant de guerre/War Elephant (with Lindsey Verrill, Henna Chou & Joey Reyes). Randall has also played in Reverend Glasseye and has collaborated with a wide range of artists including Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Yann Tiersen, Eric McFadden Trio and jazz composer Adam Rudolph.

Recorded with Chico Jones of Ohm Recording Facility in Austin, Texas, with Randall Holt on cello, the album lulls you in with “I felt safe again and was at home” into the howling strings of “Wandering: Mountain pass,” continuing the tension-and-release of an epic journey, each song a chapter from Holt’s cinematic imagination, drawing to the inevitable yet joyfully prolonged ending of a fond goodbye in “Bid Farewell, Without End!” http://randallholt.bandcamp.com/

also playing:

the gauzy metalloid surf-goth of bloody knives, going strong after their recent release of their latest album I WILL CUT YOUR HEART OUT FOR THIS http://bloodyknives.bandcamp.com/

the political synth-punk duo BLXPLTN, who are about to head out on tour in support of their upcoming new album NEW YORK FASCIST WEEK http://www.blxpltn.com/
