A Contresens

Used Item / Rare album dated 1988
Vinyl in perfect conditions / A bit aged cover, which also has slightly bent corners and a 4 cm seam split on top rim 
but stll looks good.

Self released album by OPERA MULTI STEEL on their own label ORCADUA MACHINA in 1988.
A Contresens is band’s second album, successor to the legendary Cathédrale released three years before. 
A Contresens is undoubtedly band’s « weirdest » album, the title translates in english like "in the wrong way…" and sounds like a confession. 
OMS members perhaps had the feeling of being creating something very different from usual sounds released in such times in the alternative scene...
In fact the music explores some paradoxical and varied paths borrowing from new wave, medieval music, folk… 
The instruments used are also very diverse, both electronic and acoustic: keyboards, drum machines, guitars, hyper-flanged bass, dulcimer, psaltery, recorders…
