Finally available again on vinyl! A stunning masterpiece of progressive psychedelic 70's rock from Belgium! The Eclectic Measure is a cloudy album filled with mythical references, dark moods and warm arrangements. A melancholic trip to be experienced in its full lenght. A story about man confronting his inner self and surroundings. Symbolic for this journey is the demon Abraxas, protagonist in Septem Sermones ad Mortuos, based on Basilides of Alexandria, dating from the 2nd century. The artwork by Italian graphic artists Malleus illustrates the concept.

HYPNOS 69 - The Eclectic Measure
"The Eclectic Measure is based on Carl Jung's "The Seven Sermonds To The Dead" The Seven Sermons deal with the self as androgynous beeing Abraxas, with the message that self-knowledge may be attained by the conscious assimilation of the contents of the subconscious, in order to achieve unity. It's about the search in life so many people subconscuiously feel they have to do, but don't know where or how to start with. It's far from easy to step away from a certain 'lifestyle' and rearrange everything you've been doing and thinking since you've been born. The very first rule: such as in art is you have to 'destroy in order to create'. "The Eclectic Measure" is about opposoties, poles, equilibrium, the sun and the moon, good and evil, destroy an create, ... When you've walked the path of subconscicousness and counted all the stones on your way you'll find what what you've been looking for. Abraxas is in all of us.
