Biography
Mountains of Madness, a collaboration of The Tiger Lillies (UK) and Alexander Hacke (Germany) is a spine-chilling musical performance based on some of Howard Phillips Lovecraft's most eerie stories, including The Rats in the Walls, At The Mountains of Madness and The Call of Cthulhu. Tales of ancient gods, inexplicable terror and lost souls are brought to life in strangely beautiful, sometimes humorous and melancholy songs. The trademark penetrating falsetto, musical saw, piano, double bass and assorted musical instruments of the Tiger Lillies are accompanied by Alexander Hacke's ethereal electronic soundscapes and narration. The production features visuals by artist Danielle de Picciotto and lighting is by Lutz John, known for his work with Einstürzende Neubauten and “Wir Sind Helden”.
