Stealing Fire from Heaven (CD)

Facts 11Paranoias encapsulate otherworldliness and psychedelia, drawing in inspiration and spewing out the results in a devilish cocktail of riffs, fuzz and fury. Formed on 11/11/11 with a jam that set them off on this eventful musical path, the band has relied on improvisation and instinct throughout; at no point more so than when it came to record Stealing Fire from Heaven. With no songs written or rehearsed, the band decamped to the studio on the summer solstice to lay down the seven tracks that make up the album. The results are a heady mix of low, swirling grooves, super-heavy psych and seriously uneasy listening. The phenomenal artwork for Stealing Fire from Heaven is a piece by celebrated pioneer of the Surrealist art movement, Max Ernst, entitled "The Temptation of St. Anthony."
