Bohren & der Club of Gore are a noir jazz band founded in 1992 in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany by Thorsten Benning (drums), Morten Gass (keys), Reiner Henseleit (guitar), and Robin Rodenberg (upright / double bass). They play a crossover of jazz and ambient, which they self described as an “unholy ambient mixture of slow jazz ballads, Black Sabbath doom and down tuned Autopsy sounds”. Over the years they have continously reduced and compressed their music to extremes.
Originally, the members of Bohren, who were school friends, started out playing in various hardcore bands such as 7 Inch Boots and Chronical Diarrhoea in 1988. Driven by the idea of a more unique style of music, they formed Bohren (German word for drilling) in 1992 to play, as they called it, „doom ridden jazz music“. In 1993 the band released a 7“ep for Suggestion Records. 1993 also saw the band expand their name to Bohren & der Club of Gore, as a link to the Dutch instrumental band Gore, which inspired Bohren to play instrumental music. 1994 followed the longplayers Gore Motel and the double set Midnight Radio (1995), both on Epistrophy Records, where Bohren introduced its musical vision between slow jazz- ballads and doom-guitars.
Henseleit left the band in 1996 and was replaced by Christoph Clöser, a Cologne-based composer and musician in 1997, replacing the guitar with a saxophone at the same time.

 In 1973, at a Catholic poor house in Chicago, an 81-year-old retired janitor quietly died. His name was Henry Darger. Just months earlier, he had moved from the rented room where he had lived for over 40 years. When his landlords, Nathan and Kiyoko Lerner, cleaned out the clutter room, they discovered paintings: hundreds of brilliant watercolors, some over 10 feet long. The images were disturbing and mysteriously beautiful: little girls frolicking under stormy skies, little girls fighting soldiers, little girls being rescued by fantastic winged creatures. In many images, the girls were drawn naked, with penises. The landlords soon found the other half of Darger's life's work, perhaps the longest novel ever written: the more than 15,000 page, single-spaced typed In the Realms of the Unreal, an epic story of the virtuous Vivian girls and their religious war against the evil Glandelinian army. For most of his life, Henry Darger, a recluse whom others called "Crazy," had lived in this rich fantasy world. It was a world he had kept to himself. http://rapidshare.com/files/368237952/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part01.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368244265/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part02.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368251195/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part03.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368257485/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part04.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368264700/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part05.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368272061/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part06.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368283066/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part07.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368297896/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part08.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/368313007/In_the_Realms_of_the_Unreal.part09.rar
 Fischer, an ex-cop, returns to his old beat somewhere in northern Europe after a thirteen-year hiatus in Cairo. His former mentor and role model, author of a treatise called "The Element of Crime", asks him to solve a series of murders involving lottery ticket sellers. Guided by the theories put forth in the book, Fischer retraces the steps of a suspect, Harry Grey, as recorded in a three-year-old police surveillance report. A dark film set in a post-somethingorother Europe with unique visual atmosphere and kind of cult-movie status. Fucking amazing. http://rapidshare.com/files/50097016/lvtEOC84.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50101399/lvtEOC84.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50105869/lvtEOC84.part3.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50110948/lvtEOC84.part4.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50179297/lvtEOC84.part5.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50185279/lvtEOC84.part6.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50191388/lvtEOC84.part7.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/50192601/lvtEOC84.part8.rar Password: lovermanUK
