  1. So it looks like the cost on these with tax and shipping to me will be $23.20. If you want in I have to have payment for the above amount by Monday. We will then work out the shipping price on an individual basis after I receive the records.

    Also, this was without any codes. Are there any out there right now?

    I am going through those who have responded already and seeing if you are still interested.

    I'll pay you tonight and pm later with my info. I'm also interested in getting Vheissu so I was wondering if you would mind keeping it and send it later along with Vheissu.

    Anyway, thank you man! :)

  2. Pelagic Records release ltd. THE OCEAN - THE GRAND INQUiSITOR 10" EP - feat. previously unreleased track

    THE GRAND INQUISITOR is a 10" vinyl E.P. featuring the 3 "Grand Inquisitor" - tracks from current album "Anthropocentric", as well as the 4th, previously unreleased chapter entitled "The Grand Inquisitor IV - Exclusion From Redemption". This 7-minutes track is thematically completing the "Grand Inquisitor" - series, which makes reference to the

    chapter of the same title in Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novel The Brothers Karamasov.

    The Legend of the Grand Inquisitor finds Christ in medieval Seville during the Spanish Inquisition, healing the sick and raising the dead. He is captured and sentenced to be burned at the stake. The Grand Inquisitor, who questions Christ, views his presence as an encroachment in his own work: by rejectingthe Devil's 3 temptations, the grand inquisitor argues, Christ is consciously and willingly depriving humanity of happiness - for the sake of freedom, which entails suffering.

    The grand inquisitor, representing the church, claims to have “corrected Thy work, and founded it upon miracle, mystery, and authority”; corresponding to the three temptations

    of the Devil – under the false guise of Christ himself. Humanity is not meant to ever be free, the grand inquisitor argues. By denying man freedom, him and his church are providing for his happiness.

    The lyrics of "The Grand Inquisitor IV - Exclusion From Redemption" make reference

    to the grand inquisitor's ideas and to his fierce speech about Christ's naive notion of

    humanity and his uncompassionate ideal of freedom.

    Two different artists visualized the grand inquisitor for us: Dawid Piprek from Berlin and Chris Smith from Pittsburgh.The result showcases the individual artists' very different take on the subject: Piprek's stark pencil-drawing captures the smug, authoritative gesture of the grand inquisitor, holding his hands over the cathedral of Seville.

    Smith's coloured approach, in contrast, depicts the inquisitor as a hermit, who, much like jesus, went out to the wilderness himself, before wising up: "I too have been in the wilderness, I too lived on roots and locusts, I too prized the freedom with which Thou hast blessed us… But I awakened and would not serve madness."
