Phideaux - AutoMoto Animus (Blue LP)
Lo and behold, it is the return of Phideaux Xavier with AutoMoto Animus, his first album of new material since 2018’s Infernal. That album was the capstone of Phideaux’s well received Doomsday Afternoon trilogy, a work praised for its ambitious conceptual scope and cinematic sweep.
AutoMoto Animus finds Phideaux still keenly observing the world around him. A collection of mysterious, thought-provoking, and sonically seductive songs, this is neither a radical departure nor a return to familiar ground, but an extension and reinvention. Join the new journey. From the sublime to the absurd, from the poignant to the ironically hilarious, this record will keep you listening closely and tapping your toes. Sometimes even in 4/4.

Phideaux - Infernal (Black LP)
Infernal is the final installment of Phideaux’s trilogy of albums that began in 2006 with The Great Leap. The second installment, Doomsday Afternoon, was a bombastic and complex opus, utilizing a 12-piece section of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra among a bevy of other musicians, old and new. Released in 2007, it garnered the attention of the progressive rock communities in the US and Europe. The many accolades and increasing interest led to invitations for Phideaux to play various festivals and inaugurated the Phideaux "band".
While Phideaux has released other albums since Doomsday Afternoon, Infernal returns to the stunning artwork and musical DNA from which the first two albums in the trilogy were created. The singular, "eco terror tale" continues with Infernal. Cryptic, melodic, mysterious and frightening, this new release is all one might hope to find within Phideaux’s new double creation. Infernal is "the end we saw begin”. At last.
