Euzebio

Go Go Theurgy
Go Go Theurgy, the first Anna Zaradny’s album in eight years, consists of two majestic compositions. Strikingly charismatic and intense, they teem with sensuality and anxiety, while their palpably dense and detailed texture is constantly filled with tension and sense of urgency.

When Snakeboy Is Dying
