Temporary Residence, Ltd. | There’s a lot of different kinds of music to love in San Diego’s The Black Heart Procession. A little of the Victorian-era, a bit of Voltaire (the musician, not the philosopher); even some of that keyboard could be the soundtrack to a carnival freak show, complete with Lynchian, calliope imagery that brings Merrick himself to mind. There’s a lot of the circus to BHP, too — they’re kind of the musical equivalent of Barnum and Bailey, with five extremely versatile musical stunt artists.
