Product Information

Fearful Symmetry started off as a Christmas present for their elders and ended up an early foray in the lo-fi movement.
Box of Chocolates hailed from the question-filled atmosphere of U.S. 80s-90s and spawned from the art-ghetto of Dumbo in NYC. A collective rooted in filmmaking, they nonetheless were drawn to guitars and drums and anything else they could find for music making purposes.

Contributors include a future ethnomusicologist, a 2019 Tony Award Winner, an important member of early Phish Mythology, a Honduran immigrant and the 'Prince' of Palace Music, among many other talented lost souls. The artwork's been flipped about - by livestock, no less - and the tracks have been reordered too, in places. "Stigmataphoria" and "The Past Lives of Clarence Thomas," which include much of the spirit and some of the bonafides of the initial set of songs, have been inserted for the benefit of all. And the names of the songs' writers, singers and players, including Michael Howe, Will Oldham, Arnie Wobble (of early Phish-lore), Tony Award-winner Michael Chorney, sound-artist and ethnographer Rob Millis and others whose names we shall not speak - appear also for the first time. Along with a lode of retrospective notes whose expression adds yet another form of entertainment to the package. As this cast of dozens loft-crashed their way toward a collectively-unknown future, these songs and visions were scrapped together - a loose assemblage of middle-period indie rock, roots-rock pastiche, punk brio, and cinema-fed abstractions, as a suggested soundtrack for the party of your choice. It sounded good and fun - enough so that it still does, even after all these years and all the little adjustments made to bring this ole Box of Chocolates freshly into the present, the story somehow all told and yet only just begun. Whether you yourself are new to your youthful journey, far from home or among it, we bring Fearful Symmetry to your life, as a needed bit of psychic Feng Shui. Fret not, and spin it on!
