That theme shows a kind of fearlessness in Hecker that had not been previously seen, as he mines the darker aspects of religious experience.
The figure on the cover of the record recalls those scenes of torture, too, though it reframes the infamous imagery with the eye of a museum curator, a monument to the faithful and brutalized. Having long explored Brutalism as an aesthetic movement, here Hecker confronts the ways that violence, severity, and force play out in our human reality.
Beneath those literal inspirations are the sonic dichotomies that Hecker had been flirting with on his prior releases — a melodic shimmer obfuscated by the pulse and fuzz of sense-tickling static. As such, Ultraviolet does this more effectively than anything he had previously produced, once again highlighting something unseen and immeasurable. This is a man with a PhD in the cultural history of sound — not music, but sound — after all. Albums made before and after each have their own unique distractions from these effects, but on Ultraviolet , they are stripped away to one essential function.
It is both restless and stoic at turns, obvious and subtle. Not only does it work as a continuous noise symphony, it also works on a track-by-track basis. Here, he combines instrumental elements piano, guitar, and most notably, pipe organ recorded within the church, manipulated and distorted over the course of a month in his studio back in Montreal.
This hybrid of live recording and studio technique hearkened back to piano-driven LPs Mirages and Radio Amor , and foretold the direction he would take with Love Streams and Virgins later. Most of his records to that point were concerned with an overarching theme of some sort, but none so perfectly expressed as Ravedeath.
The record pivots on the degradation of music, and everything — from the photo of MIT students pushing a piano off a roof in , to the methods with which he attacked the original instrumentation — reflects that. Hecker has spent his career collaging the degraded snippets into something profound on both sensory and technical levels. Here Are The Grammy Nominations.

Review: A Record Store Day release that's thankfully made the transition from limited edition vinyl to download, thanks to Domino strand Double Six, these five remixes and covers of former Velvet Underground man and visionary producer John Cale are led off by Actress' slow and gothic makeover of Cale's "Perfection", while Maria Minerva gives "Whaddya Mean By That" a soft and cosmic overhaul, with a healthy dose of bite coming from some jarring and dissonant notes.
