<p>The Brian Jonestown Massacre is an American musical outfit led by frontman Anton Newcombe, formed in San Francisco in 1990. Their early music was in a shoegaze style; following their debut album, Methodrone, the group's sound transitioned to a broader style of psychedelic rock, incorporating styles such as garage rock, folk rock and later electronica into their sound. The act continues to experiment with musical styles.</p>

Aufheben or aufhebung is a german word with several seemingly contradictory meanings, including 'to lift up', 'to abolish', or 'to sublate'. The term has also been defined as 'abolish,' 'preserve,' and 'transcend.' In philosophy, aufheben is used by hegel to explain what happens when a thesis and antithesis interact. Recorded in Berlin in Anton Newcombe's studio and the infamous east german radio station studio east featuring Matt Hollywood an original member of the band. It also features Will Carruthers (Spacemen 3, Spritualized), Constatine Karlis (Dimmer), and Thibault Pesenti (Rockcandys). plus vocal performances by Eliza Karmasalo (in finnish) this album brings the traditional Brian Jonestown Massacre sound mixed with eastern influences and bringing it up to date with the benefit of all the additional weirdness that's been discovered in the past 40 years.
