Aspect Arts Indepenent Art and Music


The Narcotic Trinket is the latest full length ambient-abstract release from Kathartes (John Harford). It is a trip through a crack in the corner of a room - to realms reminiscient of HP Lovecraft, Michael Moorcock, The Amityville murders and Luis Brunel. It is perhaps the most musically complete and complex of all of the ambient albums. A soundtrack to a waking (?) nightmare.

Kathartes is for now on hiatus. Though elements of the ambient music creep into the rest of John's video and music.

Released in 2008.

Reminiscient of industrial music, horror movie ambience, and black magic.
